Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Mirassol 1-1 Palmeiras. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Mauricio 75', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Mirassol led Shots on target 5-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Palmeiras also shaded Total shots 11-14.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Palmeiras the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
