  • Spain — the market puts it at 26%, closing 9 Aug 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Spain wins the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup. It resolves to No if any other team wins the tournament. Readers often mistake the linked news story about player call-ups for the actual resolution criteria.

The outcome is No if any other team wins that specific title. Readers often mistake this for the current year's competition or confuse it with winning a single match rather than the entire championship.
  • Will Spain win the 2026-27 UEFA Nations League? — the market puts it at 32%, with $153 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 14 Jun 2027. Spain wins if it claims the 2026-27 UEFA Nations League title before the deadline.
