Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the market favourite
The final score was Quevilly Rouen 4-3 Auxerre. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
The decisive turn arrived late when Papa Ndiaga Yade scored 90+10' for Quevilly Rouen.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Auxerre led Possession 41%-59%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Auxerre also shaded Corners 6-8.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Auxerre the favourite at 45.5% implied probability. That market lean missed.
