Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was LOSC Lille 0-0 Nice. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither LOSC Lille nor Nice found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: LOSC Lille led Shots on target 2-1, even though the scoreboard went another way. LOSC Lille also shaded Total shots 9-5.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made LOSC Lille the favourite at 67.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
