Postmatch editorial

The prices said close and the pitch agreed

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

Alan Carleton put the first mark on the match 5', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Örebro led Shots on target 6-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. Örebro also shaded Total shots 21-14.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Örebro the favourite at 44.1% implied probability. That market lean missed.
