Postmatch editorial

The pre-match tension never quite broke

The final score was Pordenone 3-3 Crotone. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Roberto Zammarini 90', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Crotone led Corners 3-5, even though the scoreboard went another way. Crotone also shaded Possession 44%-56%.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Crotone the favourite at 44.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
