Those who only see the final score might think Gent dropped two points, but those who watched the match would see that Gent actually gained a point.
Gent played very well until they scored, but after finding the net in the 10th minute, they tried to protect their lead.
In the 47th minute, Durosinmo struck a ball coming from a corner kick; a mistake by the Gent goalkeeper allowed the score to level at 1–1.
Seriously, I really don't get submission here, you said those who saw the final score might think Gent dropped two but those who watched the match would see they gained a point. I'm wondering is it not the same thing? Or dies watching the match change the outcome of what's recorded? You clearly concluded that both teams played out a 1-1 draw at FT, when a team plays draw don't they drop 2 points and pick only one point?
Mate, I don't think you fully grasp football.
Gent is a team contending for the title this year. Sometimes you play really well but the match ends in a draw; instead of taking 3 points, you leave the pitch with just 1. In such cases, you’ve dropped 2 points, and dropping 2 points in a title race is significant.
At other times, you play terribly—when your opponent really ought to take the 3 points—but you manage to scrape a draw purely by luck. Instead of losing 3 points on the road to the title, you actually gain 1 point. In football, the math "3 minus 2" can represent a loss of 1 point in one scenario and a gain of 1 point in another. If you look at it simply, the result is 1 point, but the psychological implications are different.
