Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was VfL Wolfsburg 0-0 Borussia Mönchengladbach. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither VfL Wolfsburg nor Borussia Mönchengladbach found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: VfL Wolfsburg led Shots on target 4-2, even though the scoreboard went another way. VfL Wolfsburg also shaded Corners 8-5.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made VfL Wolfsburg the favourite at 47.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
