Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Exeter City 3-3 Stockport County. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Jack Bycroft 90+6', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Stockport County led Possession 35%-65%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Stockport County also shaded Shots on target 8-11.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Stockport County the favourite at 57.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
