Football bet settlement

Can a throw-in become a corner bet because a defender deflects it out?

Direct answer

Only a corner kick awarded under football Law 17 can become a corner for betting purposes, and some markets count only corners actually taken. A throw-in does not count as a corner by itself.

How to use this answer

This answer is based on the mathematical principle or published rule identified in the source below. If the question involves a live betting market, confirm its settlement definition before applying it to a specific bet.

For player, card and corner markets, the exact selection type matters. A singles rule is not automatically the same as a bet-builder rule; use the market definition and the settlement source for the operator shown on your slip.
