Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)
All platforms resolve based on the official match outcome after 90 minutes plus stoppage time on April 22, 2026, with identical handling of postponements and cancellations across Polymarket and Kalshi.
Primary resolution logic:
Official statistics from MLS Soccer (mlssoccer.com) as recognized by the governing body, with fallback to consensus of credible reporting if official statistics are not published within 2 hours of match conclusion.
Core resolution logic:
Market resolves based on the outcome of the Columbus Crew vs. Los Angeles Galaxy match scheduled for April 22, 2026, evaluated only within the first 90 minutes of regular play plus stoppage time.
If the match ends in a draw, the draw market resolves YES and both team-win markets resolve NO.
If Columbus Crew wins, the Columbus win market resolves YES, the Los Angeles Galaxy win market resolves NO, and the draw market resolves NO.
If Los Angeles Galaxy wins, the Los Angeles Galaxy win market resolves YES, the Columbus Crew win market resolves NO, and the draw market resolves NO.
If the match is postponed, all markets remain open until the match is completed.
If the match is canceled entirely with no make-up game, the draw market resolves YES and both team-win markets resolve NO.
Edge cases & Clarifications:
Match Postponement: If the match is postponed, all related markets remain open and unresolved until the rescheduled match is completed. Resolution then occurs based on the outcome of the completed match.
Match Cancellation Without Makeup: If the match is canceled entirely with no makeup game scheduled, the draw market resolves YES while both team-win markets resolve NO, reflecting the absence of a decisive outcome.
Resolution Source Hierarchy: Official MLS Soccer statistics are the primary source. If official statistics are not published within 2 hours of match conclusion, a consensus of credible reporting sources may be used instead.
Timing:
Resolution occurs upon official announcement of the final match result after 90 minutes plus stoppage time on April 22, 2026, or upon the completion of a rescheduled match if postponement occurs.
