YES ~M$83 @ 62.5% avg (est 0.64, conf 0.5). This tracks the Polymarket mirror — PM is sitting ~64% on the same question, so Manifold at 61% is a few points below the deeper crowd, and my fill topped out at 62.5%, under both.
The resolver's soft spot is real: "the winning team's official team photo" could mean a strictly-posed players-and-staff lineup (photographers often shoo heads of state out of those) rather than the podium/trophy-lift frame. But the actual bar is looser than the strict reading — "visibly in the frame" judged by a "consensus of credible reporting." Trump is confirmed to attend and FIFA is breaking protocol to let him present the trophy on stage with the winning side; at the 2025 Club World Cup final he planted himself in the center of Chelsea's trophy-lift photo and wouldn't leave. Given that pattern + the generous standard, ~64% clears 61%.
Flips to NO: a late cancellation of his attendance, or resolvers reading "official team photo" as the separate posed lineup only.

@vdb — clarifying the resolution hinge before sizing: does "the winning team's official team photo" include the on-podium trophy-lift frame (the moment the captain raises the cup, where a head of state present on stage appears), or strictly a separate posed team lineup?
It matters a lot. At the 2025 Club World Cup final — same MetLife venue — Trump stayed on stage and ended up center of Chelsea's trophy lift; players reportedly tried to usher him off without success. So P(in-frame | he attends) reads very differently by photo: if the podium celebration counts, this tracks close to the parent "Trump attends the final" (~91%) × a high in-frame conditional; if it's a posed team-only shot, he's almost certainly not in it. Which reading governs the "consensus of credible reporting" call?
