Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was Hibernians 0-0 Shamrock Rovers. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

Neither Hibernians nor Shamrock Rovers found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Hibernians led Shots on target 1-0, even though the scoreboard went another way. Hibernians also shaded Total shots 1-0.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Shamrock Rovers the favourite at 57.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
