The score was 3-3 with a minute left to play and Sweden about to take a penalty. Then a Danish fan (and gambler?) stormed onto the field and tried to attack the ref. The Danish players just prevented that, but the ref suspended the game and awarded Sweden a 3-0 victory.
So did the books grade this as 3-3, as 4-3 Sweden (penalty kick), or as 3-0 Sweden? My guess is 3-3, which means that that Danish fan did what I have often dreamed of.

Wow, that's some story. I'm also interested in seeing how it was graded. My guess would be 3-0 Sweden, just as the ref had decided.
I have 2000gbp on this match on Sweden to win or draw on the Asian lines but the bookmaker's are refusing to pay out on this match as they are saying if the match is abandonded before the 90mins are played all bets are void!! I am well gutted I have asked them to pay me out as anyone knows with commen sense this bet had won with 1 minute to go and also Sweden had a penalty to take when the match was abandonded, can anyone tell me if I am able to dispute this decision or are they just correct in saying the bet is void, I appreciate the rules but this feels so unfair under the circumstances.
I had a similar asian bet with canbet. They are treating bets as being void - even though EUFA are likely to award the game to Sweden. So some Danish twat has cost me a a lot of money.
So The only people who are happy are those who would have lost had the game continued. - they get their money back. Surely common sense should prevail in such circumstances
If Uefa award the game as a draw or Sweden win surely the bookmakers have got to pay out on this bet? as that would be the official result? I remember in England a few years ago a game was abandonded around 15minutes before the end between west brom v sheff utd and the bookies paid out on the match as the result stood at the time, I can't understand why they are not doing this now especially when there was a minute to go!
I never realized that about soccer. From WSEX rules, per sport:
Results are official after:
football 55 minutes
basketball 43 minutes (NBA) = 89.6%
basketball 35 minutes (NCAA) = 87.5%
baseball 5 innings = 55.6% or 58.8%
auto racing at least half of scheduled laps. = 50.1%
soccer 90 minutes! = 100%
Been out of town for awhile, with limited computer access. Does anyone know what Germany was laying to San Marino? Surely their 6-0 win wasn't enough to cover, I would guess 8.5 or so.
