Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Olympique Marseille 2-2 Amiens SC. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Saman Ghoddos 90+5', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Olympique Marseille led Shots on target 6-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Olympique Marseille also shaded Possession 55%-45%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Olympique Marseille the favourite at 64.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
