Understand this market
This market is asking how many games at the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be settled by a penalty shootout — the tiebreaker where players take turns kicking at the goal. The three tiers here are: at least 1 shootout, at least 2, and at least 3. A 'Yes' on any tier means the tournament reached that number; a 'No' means it fell short. Only knockout-round games count, since group-stage games can end in a draw with no shootout needed.

Resolution Criteria
This market will resolve to “Yes” if the total number of matches decided by a penalty shootout during the 2026 FIFA World Cup equals or exceeds the listed number. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. A match is counted if it proceeds to a penalty shootout to determine the result. Only knockout-stage matches can be decided by shootout. If the 2026 FIFA World Cup is shortened, truncated, or ends early for any reason, the outcome shall be determined using available official data for completed matches. If the 2026 FIFA World Cup is cancelled, postponed after August 2, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or the exact total cannot be determined within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “No”. The resolution source for this market will be official information from FIFA; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
