Since Livechat is down: hypothetical scenario.

Exchange-Soccer-"Player to Score"
Lay-bet "Player X", pre-match.
Player X does not start match, but comes in as sub in 71' minute
Player doesn't score.

The way I read the rules means I win my bet, as the player doesn't need to start. He could have come in at 94' minute, right?
However, bet was voided.

Anyone has a clue?
Pause Switch to Standard View Can someone explain why this bet was...

@penzance, can you indicate where those rules are written?

This is what I read in the Rules: " Will the named player score in this game? Own goals do not count.
Betfair will endeavour to partially settle winners in this market however, determined selections may remain in the market and it is the responsibility of customers to manage their position following material events in this market. The player does not need to play the full match, with bets standing if the player plays any part in the match. Betfair will void all bets on players not playing. In the event of a dubious goal where there is not a clear winner the selections in question will remain in the market available for betting. Subsequent appeals or rulings will not be considered. Each player constitutes a separate and independent market and commission is charged accordingly.
All bets apply to Full Time according to the match officials, plus any stoppage time. Extra-time/penalty shoot-outs are not included."

I read this:
Event Start Time
22 August 2025, 19:00
Any number of winners

"Will the named player score in this game? .
Bets are placed on a named player to score during the match. Bets will be void on all players that are not named in the initial Starting XI. Only goals scored by starting players will count to settlement of the markets. All bets on non starting players will remain voided.

All bets apply to full-time, including stoppage time, but exclude extra time and penalty shootouts. Subsequent appeals, rulings, or official goal reassignments will not be considered for settlement. Own goals do not count for settlement purposes and are ignored. The market will be suspended at kickoff and will not be available in-play. For further information please see Rules & Regs|"


Amazing: there are different rules for different leagues: What I posted was from tonight's game "Crystal Palace v Fredrikstad". It's cleared up now. Thx, @penzance.
