Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was KV Kortrijk 2-2 Sint-Truiden. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Adriano Bertaccini put the first mark on the match 5', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Sint-Truiden led Corners 3-7, even though the scoreboard went another way. KV Kortrijk also shaded Possession 62%-38%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Sint-Truiden the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
