Postmatch editorial

The pre-match tension never quite broke

The final score was Philadelphia Union 2-2 Inter Miami. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

Indiana Vassilev put the first mark on the match 11', setting the tone for the rest of the night.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Philadelphia Union led Total shots 17-5, even though the scoreboard went another way. Philadelphia Union also shaded Shots on target 6-3.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Philadelphia Union the favourite at 43.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
