Postmatch editorial
Neither side managed to pull the match clear
The final score was Žalgiris 0-0 Linfield. The draw was not the loudest pre-match angle, but the game never fully escaped its balance.
Neither Žalgiris nor Linfield found a breakthrough, so the game stayed goalless all the way through.
The raw numbers were a little messier than the result: Žalgiris led Shots on target 7-4, even though the scoreboard went another way. Žalgiris also shaded Total shots 15-9.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Žalgiris the favourite at 51.3% implied probability. That market lean missed.
