Postmatch editorial

Grasshopper flipped the prices on their head

The final score was Lausanne Sport 1-3 Grasshopper. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The decisive turn arrived late when Christian Kouam scored 90+1' for Grasshopper.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Lausanne Sport led Corners 7-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Lausanne Sport also shaded Total shots 17-9.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Lausanne Sport the favourite at 82.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
