Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Málaga 1-1 Las Palmas. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Jesé put the first mark on the match 3', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Málaga led Shots on target 6-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Málaga also shaded Corners 7-2.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Málaga the favourite at 50.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
