Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Ponferradina 1-1 Castellón after extra time. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Álex Costa 90+1', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Ponferradina led Shots on target 7-5, even though the scoreboard went another way. Castellón also shaded Corners 4-7.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Ponferradina the favourite at 40.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
