A team achieves a large goal margin during the first half of a World Cup soccer match.
This event comprises two separate markets tracking first-half goal differentials in the USA vs Australia FIFA World Cup match scheduled for June 19, 2026. The first market resolves Yes if USA wins the first half by more than 1.5 goals; the second resolves Yes if Australia wins the first half by more than 1.5 goals. Only goals scored during the first half (45 minutes plus stoppage time) count toward resolution. If the match is cancelled or rescheduled more than two weeks away, both markets resolve to a fair price. Otherwise, exactly one market will resolve Yes based on the first-half goal differential, or both resolve No if neither team achieves a margin exceeding 1.5 goals.
