How this resolves

The market resolves on the official FIFA match record for the 11 July quarter-final in Miami. It resolves YES only if England are ahead when the referee ends normal time; a win after extra time or penalties resolves NO. If that source has not published in time, Sky Sports and ESPN match reports settle it.

The pattern behind it

1 of 5
England have won one of their last five World Cup quarter-finals inside ninety minutes: Sweden in 2018. The other win, Cameroon in 1990, needed extra time and two Lineker penalties; Portugal in 2006 finished goalless and went to a shootout; France in 2022 and Brazil in 2002 were lost in normal time. That is the full record since 1990 — two wins in five, one of them inside the ninety.

Since 1990 England have played five World Cup quarter-finals. They won two. Only the 2018 game against Sweden was won inside ninety minutes. The 1990 win over Cameroon needed extra time and two Gary Lineker penalties, and the other three ended in defeat, one of them on penalties.
