this is my query:

index="prod" eventtype="csm-messages-dhcpd-lpf-eth0-sending" OR eventtype="csm-messages-dhcpd-lpf-eth0-listening" OR eventtype="csm-messages-dhcpd-send-socket-fallback-net" OR eventtype="csm-messages-dhcpd-write-zero-leases" OR eventtype="csm-messages-dhcpd-eth1-nosubnet-declared" 
 | bin span=1s _time
 | chart count OVER _time BY eventtype
 | foreach eventtype [ eval flag=if(match('<<eventtype>>',"0"),"yes", "no")]

im getting flag "no" for every raw even if there are mismatches ..
what am i missing ?
