One football fan is celebrating a massive windfall following a successful bet on last night’s Euro 2024 semi-final between Spain and France.
The two giants of European football went head-to-head in Munich for a place in Sunday’s final, and it was the Spaniards who came out on top.
They were not the only ones celebrating at full-time either, as one Stake bettor had successfully backed Spain to beat France 2-1 in 90 minutes.
The punter claimed odds of 2.75 on a narrow success for the Spaniards, and was so confident they staked $116,459.25 on them getting the job done at the Allianz Arena.
The bet looked to be in danger when Kolo Muani put Les Bleus ahead early on, but the Spaniards responded emphatically before the half-an-hour mark to settle this Stake customer’s nerves.
Teenager Lamine Yamal’s sensational strike levelled matters on 21 minutes, and four minutes later Dani Olmo completed the turnaround with what proved to be the winning goal.
That winning goal resulted in a payout of $320,262.95 for this football fan, who will have undoubtedly been celebrating just like the Spaniards were at half-time.
Spain now await the winners of Wednesday’s second semi-final between the Netherlands and England, and with just two matches left in the tournament bettors are running out of time to claim a special promotion from Stake.
The bookmaker is currently offering a 200% matched deposit welcome bonus for new customers that sign up with using the Stake promo code HUGE.
