Postmatch editorial
The scoreboard moved against the market favourite
The final score was Strasbourg 5-4 Monaco. It landed away from the bookmaker favourite and counts as a genuine market upset.
Monaco struck first through Lamine Camara 10', but Strasbourg recovered and flipped the match.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Monaco led Possession 40%-60%, even though the scoreboard went another way. Monaco also shaded Total shots 15-21.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Monaco the favourite at 51.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
