Postmatch editorial

The scoreboard moved against the market favourite

The final score was Gloucester City 0-2 Gosport Borough. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Gloucester City led Total shots 14-8, even though the scoreboard went another way.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Gloucester City the favourite at 54.9% implied probability. That market lean missed.
