Postmatch editorial
Neither side managed to pull the match clear
The final score was Rennes 1-1 Krasnodar. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Serhou Guirassy put the first mark on the match 56', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Rennes led Shots on target 7-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. Rennes also shaded Total shots 20-10.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Rennes the favourite at 62.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
