Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was St. Gallen 2-2 Luzern. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
The late equaliser came from Lukas Görtler 90+11', which kept the game level at the finish.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: St. Gallen led Shots on target 11-3, even though the scoreboard went another way. St. Gallen also shaded Total shots 24-12.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made St. Gallen the favourite at 55.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
