Postmatch editorial
The pre-match tension never quite broke
The final score was Troyes 0-0 Ajaccio. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither Troyes nor Ajaccio found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Troyes led Shots on target 5-1, even though the scoreboard went another way. Troyes also shaded Total shots 12-6.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Troyes the favourite at 54.9% implied probability. That market lean missed.
