This market centers on the outcome of a professional MLS soccer match between Kansas City and Salt Lake, focusing solely on the result after the regulation 90 minutes plus stoppage time. It allows participants to speculate on whether a specific team will secure a win during regular time or if the game will conclude in a draw within those same parameters.
The event determines the winner of the Kansas City versus Salt Lake professional MLS soccer match scheduled for October 17, 2026, based exclusively on the result after 90 minutes of play plus any stoppage time, excluding extra time or penalty kicks. Three distinct outcomes are possible: a win for Kansas City, a win for Salt Lake, or a tie. If the match ends in a tie after regulation and stoppage time, the 'Tie' market resolves positively. Should the game be cancelled or rescheduled to a date more than 48 hours beyond the original schedule, the markets will resolve to a fair price as determined by the platform’s rules. The resolution strictly adheres to the result within regular time and stoppage, with no consideration given to post-match events such as extra time or penalty shootouts.
