They pretty much are but my book has them both at +115. The -0.5 is the spread line and obviously Money line is the +115. Good luck bud.

Same bet, book just didn't update their lines properly. Mine does the same thing all the time, which is why I ALWAYS check the spread line to make sure it's not paying better than the ML.
But ML and -0.5 are 100% the same in soccer wagering.

The draw bet is different. If you bet that one, you need a tie to win.
To win a -0.5 bet, the team MUST win by 1 or more goals.
As far as I'm concerned, you can push a ML bet with a tie. Lower odds, lower risk, lower reward.
This is wrong. ML loses in soccer, assuming there is a draw option, when your team loses. Pk'em on the other hand, PUSHES on a draw. Big difference.
Trust me, this is coming from someone who has lost PLENTY of ML wagers in soccer when the games ends in a draw.
OP's case is simply a matter of a book not properly updating their lines. If the ML would push (making it a "draw no bet") the difference in price would be MUCH more than 10 cents.

Bk is right. The ML loses if it's a draw at end of regulation. The line entends into the 'added' time and you don't automatically lose if it's ited and goes into extra time.
