Postmatch editorial

Neither side managed to pull the match clear

The final score was Vasco da Gama 1-1 Mirassol. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.

The late equaliser came from Andrés Gómez 80', which kept the game level at the finish.

The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Vasco da Gama led Total shots 20-10, even though the scoreboard went another way. Vasco da Gama also shaded Corners 9-5.

Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Vasco da Gama the favourite at 50.0% implied probability. That market lean missed.
