Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the market favourite
The final score was Reims 1-0 Toulouse. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Jordan put the first mark on the match 39', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Toulouse led Shots on target 2-6, even though the scoreboard went another way. Toulouse also shaded Corners 0-9.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Toulouse the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
