Postmatch editorial

The pre-match tension never quite broke

The final score was Fortuna Sittard 1-1 NAC Breda. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Mohamed Nassoh  90+2', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: NAC Breda led Shots on target 2-7, even though the scoreboard went another way. NAC Breda also shaded Total shots 10-14.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made NAC Breda the favourite at 41.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
