Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Palmeiras 0-0 Internacional. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither Palmeiras nor Internacional found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Palmeiras led Total shots 22-9, even though the scoreboard went another way. Palmeiras also shaded Corners 5-2.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Palmeiras the favourite at 63.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
