Postmatch editorial
Remo upset the pre-match prices
The final score was Remo 1-0 São Paulo. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
The decisive turn arrived late when Marcelinho scored 90+4' for Remo.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: São Paulo led Shots on target 2-4, even though the scoreboard went another way. São Paulo also shaded Possession 39%-61%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made São Paulo the favourite at 42.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
