The scoreboard moved against the market favourite

The final score was Örgryte 4-3 Häcken. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.

The decisive turn arrived late when Noah Christoffersson scored 87' for Örgryte.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Häcken led Shots on target 5-9, even though the scoreboard went another way. Häcken also shaded Possession 39%-61%.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Häcken the favourite at 69.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
