Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Platense 2-2 Unión Santa Fe. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Bautista Merlini 87', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Platense led Shots on target 5-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Platense also shaded Corners 6-2.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Platense the favourite at 41.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
