Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was SPAL 1-1 Crotone. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Giuseppe Rossi 86', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: SPAL led Total shots 22-15, even though the scoreboard went another way. SPAL also shaded Possession 54%-46%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made SPAL the favourite at 51.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
