Description

During the group stage of the 2026 Men's FIFA World Cup, matches that remain tied after regular and extra time will be decided by penalty shootouts. This event tracks how many of these early-round matches are ultimately settled through this method.

Kalshi

The market resolves based on the total number of Round of 32 matches in the 2026 Men's FIFA World Cup that remain tied after extra time and are subsequently decided by penalty shootout. Each outcome corresponds to a specific threshold: the market resolves Yes if at least the specified minimum number of matches go to penalties. For example, the '1+ matches' outcome resolves Yes if one or more matches are decided by penalty shootout, the '2+ matches' outcome resolves Yes if two or more matches are decided by penalty shootout, and so forth through the '12+ matches' outcome. The resolution is based solely on the count of penalty shootout decisions in the Round of 32 stage.
