Postmatch editorial

The scoreboard moved against the market favourite

The final score was Neftçi 2-4 Dinamo Minsk. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

Neftçi struck first through Keiren Westwood 2', but Dinamo Minsk recovered and flipped the match.

The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Dinamo Minsk led Shots on target 5-8. Neftçi also shaded Corners 5-3.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Neftçi the favourite at 54.9% implied probability. That market lean missed.
