Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to YES if, in any FIFA World Cup 2026 knockout match played on or after July 7, 2026, a team wins the match after trailing in goals at halftime. Otherwise, this market will resolve to NO.

• Applicable matches: All knockout matches scheduled from July 7, 2026, through the Final on July 19, 2026. This includes the remaining Round of 16 matches on July 7, the Quarterfinals, the Semifinals, the Third-place play-off, and the Final.

• Trailing at halftime: At the halftime whistle (the end of the first 45 minutes of play plus stoppage time), the eventually winning team must have scored fewer goals than their opponent (e.g., trailing 0-1, 1-2).

• Winning the match: The trailing team must go on to win the match and progress (or win the match outright if it is the Final or Third-place play-off). This includes victories achieved during normal regulation time, during extra time, or via a penalty shootout.

• Source of truth: Official match reports and data published on the FIFA Official Website.
