Postmatch editorial
Neither side managed to pull the match clear
The final score was Hartlepool United 1-1 Brackley Town. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Adam Campbell 87', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Brackley Town led Shots on target 2-5, even though the scoreboard went another way. Hartlepool United also shaded Corners 11-9.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Hartlepool United the favourite at 53.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
