Postmatch editorial
Nancy upset the pre-match prices
The final score was Nancy 3-2 Dunkerque. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Nicolas Saint-Ruf put the first mark on the match 20', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Dunkerque led Possession 39%-61%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Dunkerque also shaded Corners 3-5.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Dunkerque the favourite at 41.7% implied probability. That market lean missed.
