Postmatch editorial
Athletico PR flipped the prices on their head
The final score was Santos 0-2 Athletico PR. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Kevin Viveros put the first mark on the match 14', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Santos led Total shots 22-8, even though the scoreboard went another way. Athletico PR also shaded Shots on target 2-4.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Santos the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
