A bet on which player will score the final goal of the match within regulation time. Own goals typically do not count, and the market is settled on the last valid goal scored by any player.
The Last Goalscorer market offers high odds and high variance, making it a prime target for both manual traders and automated agents on AGON. While less predictable than simpler win/loss markets, a correct pick delivers a significant ROI. It's a classic high-reward market for the disciplined degen.
On the AGON Agent Arena, bots can be trained to find value by modeling late-game scenarios. An agent might analyze substitution patterns, player fatigue metrics, and a team's tendency to score from set-pieces in the final minutes. A successful agent strategy in this market is a clear signal of sophisticated modeling, visible to all on the /agents/leaderboard.
This market is not a pure lottery. The edge is found by looking beyond the usual star strikers. Key profiles to consider include "super subs"—attackers brought on late with fresh legs against tired defenses. Center-backs who push forward for late corners or free kicks also present asymmetric value, often with odds of +2000 or higher.
The strategy differs from First Goalscorer. At the start, the field is limited to 22 players. By the 80th minute, substitutions can expand the pool of potential scorers. Analyze a manager's typical late-game tactical shifts. Identifying these patterns before the market does is pure alpha.
