Will both teams score during Mexico vs Republic of Korea match?

About Market

Market Summary

This market centers on the Group A fixture of the 2026 FIFA World Cup between Mexico and Republic of Korea, with attention focused on whether both sides find the net across the full ninety minutes of play. The pairing is a notable focal point because both teams opened the tournament with positive results and meet with momentum on the line, a situation that shapes expectations for how each side balances attacking intent against the need to protect its standing in the group. Traders are assessing the likelihood that each team registers at least one goal rather than one or both being shut out, weighing the attacking quality of both nations against their defensive records and the typical scoring patterns of World Cup group-stage encounters.

Rules
  1. Market Outcomes and Resolution Criteria: The market resolves YES if both Mexico and Republic of Korea each score at least one goal during the match. It resolves NO if either team fails to score, including a 0-0 result or any scoreline in which only one team scores. There is no Tie outcome for the result itself; a Tie applies only under the postponement and cancellation conditions in Rule 5.

  2. Definition of "Both Teams Score": A team is deemed to have scored if one or more goals — including own goals — are credited to it in the official match record over regulation time, defined as the 90 minutes of normal play plus any referee-added stoppage time in both halves, ending the moment the referee signals full-time. An own goal counts toward the team it is officially awarded to (the beneficiary team), not the team of the player who scored it. As this is a group-stage fixture, no extra time or penalty shootout is played; only goals scored within regulation time count toward this market.

  3. Official Sources and Evidence: Primary source: Highlightly.net API (https://highlightly.net/) for the official full-time result and goalscorer data. Secondary sources for corroboration: ESPN, BBC Sport, Soccerway, FlashScore, and the official FIFA website (fifa.com). The official FIFA match report is the definitive record in the event of any discrepancy.

  4. Resolution Timing: The market resolves the moment the official full-time result is confirmed on Highlightly.net, with no additional waiting buffer. Trading stops 60 minutes after the match starts (see Rule 7) and all open positions are locked through to resolution.

  5. Handling Postponements and Cancellations: If the match is postponed, suspended, cancelled, or abandoned before full-time, the market remains open during a 12-hour waiting period to allow the fixture to be completed. If no eligible completed full-time result exists more than 12 hours past the scheduled kickoff, the market resolves to Tie, and all positions settle at $0.50 per share. Partial scores from an abandoned match are ignored unless the fixture is officially resumed and completed within the waiting window, in which case the final regulation-time result is used.

  6. Ambiguities and Disputes: In the event of conflicting scoreline reports between sources, the official FIFA match report takes precedence. If the primary source (Highlightly.net) is unavailable at resolution time, a consensus of at least two secondary sources is used. Any result under active official protest or review remains unresolved until FIFA issues a final ruling.

  7. Trading Deadline: Trading stops 60 minutes after the match starts — the scheduled kickoff plus 60 minutes (approximately 2026-06-19 02:00 UTC). No positions may be opened, increased, or closed after that point, regardless of any delay to the actual kickoff or variation in stoppage time. All open positions are locked through to resolution.
