They said on the BBC that Muller gets it, as he had 3 assists to the others 1.

So did Forlan!
If you bet on "winning the golden boot" then Muller wins due to his assists.
But if you bet "top goalscorer" the bookies have to pay out on 4 winners you will get 1/4 the odds. Had it been 3 winners then it'd be 1/3 the odds and so on.

You get 1/4 of the stake at full odds - so £1.25 at 8/1

I have Spain/Villa at 14/1, will i get anything for it? So far there is nothing under the result but i also had Spain to win as a single and they have paid the money into my account for that.

Same! I put on Muller on to be top goalscorer at 7/1 £10 on! Just checked Sky Bet and instead of £80 its £26.75! What a load of bollocks, there wasn't even the option to bet on Golden Boot winner, just top scorer :rolleyes: It's the same thing!

It works like this..

If both have 5 goals, they then move onto assists, if they have the same amount with them too, whoever has been on the park the least amount of minutes wins.

Thats how FIFA work out the Golden Boot winner, bookies pay out on a 4 way dead heat for top scorer purposes (assists etc don't count)

As others have said you should get a share of the odds.

I had £3 on VIlla @ 8/1 with Skybet to be top scorer and got back only £6.75.


Still, its better in my pocket than theirs.

Dead heat rules apply as most people have said. If you're really that annoyed by it, i'd say be happy with your payout as (as others have said), he was joint top scorer but not the golden boot winner so you have to be happy with some payout rather they turned round and said you were getting nowt as he wasn't technically the winner.

I had a Spain/Villa double at 14/1, I had 2 quid on it and got 12quid back. I have a Willyhills account and I got an email explaining how the odds were divided down etc, so check your account! Hope that helps :agree:
