Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

The final score was Internacional 0-0 Atlético Mineiro. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

Neither Internacional nor Atlético Mineiro found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Internacional led Total shots 23-11, even though the scoreboard went another way. Atlético Mineiro also shaded Shots on target 3-5.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Internacional the favourite at 54.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
