Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Sandefjord 2-2 HamKam. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Mame Alassane Niang 90+4', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: HamKam led Corners 4-7, even though the scoreboard went another way. HamKam also shaded Possession 47%-53%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Sandefjord the favourite at 51.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
