Postmatch editorial
The prices said close and the pitch agreed
The final score was Wrexham 1-1 Watford. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Luca Kjerrumgaard put the first mark on the match 14', setting the tone for the rest of the night.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Watford led Shots on target 2-6, even though the scoreboard went another way. Wrexham also shaded Corners 10-3.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Wrexham the favourite at 55.2% implied probability. That market lean missed.
