Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Mjällby 0-0 Västerås SK. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither Mjällby nor Västerås SK found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Mjällby led Total shots 17-8, even though the scoreboard went another way. Mjällby also shaded Corners 11-3.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Mjällby the favourite at 57.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
