# Why am I not receiving the final score/result of a match (match\_result)?

The final score (match\_result) is not available through the prematch (CTRL) producer, and is only available within the last [odds\_change](/uof/data-and-features/messages/event/odds-change.md) message from the Live Odds [producer](/uof/introduction/key-concepts/producers.md). To receive the result, you will need to have booked the match **and** be subscribed to the Live Odds producer (and the match has to be covered). If these criteria are not met, you will need to pull the match\_result though the API. This can be done using the summary.xml endpoint.
