A Paddy punter was left toasting Germany midfielder Leon Goretzka on Wednesday night after the Bayern Munich substitute landed him a cool £1,354.58 off just a £1 stake.
The UK-based bettor had placed a nine-leg Multi-Match Bet Builder on three Champions League games with most of the bet over the line by the 87th minute – except for a yellow card in Bayern’s mauling at the hands of Barcelona.
The customer had already seen Alexis Mac Allister booked after 12 minutes, along with Mohamed Salah assisting a goal for Darwin Nunez to box off the two bets from Liverpool’s 1-0 win away at RB Leipzig.
Over in Manchester, Phil Foden opened the scoring on three minutes to click a ‘score or assist’ selection, and then Erling Haaland bagged on 58 minutes to seal a punt on him to score anytime.
The bet on City to win with a -1 handicap looked comfortable as they piled on the goals in an eventual 5-0 win against Sparta Prague, although it took until the 87th minute for the visitor’s Ecuadorian international Angelo Preciado to earn the yellow card required in this Multi-Match Bet Builder.
So, it was back to Barcelona, where the goalscorer bets of Harry Kane and Robert Lewandowski both to bag had already landed by the 36th minute, meaning it was all eyes on Goretzka to do the business for our punter.
Former Fulham man Joao Palinha was the original selection to get a yellow card, but he was hauled off by boss Vincent Kompany after an hour with his side 4-1 down.
But thanks to Paddy Super Sub offer – where your bet carries over to the player replacing them – our punter wasn’t out of the game even if the Portuguese was.
He was left to sweat on the referee reaching for his notebook, with the yellow card eventually being shown to Goretzka in the 90th minute to land the loot for our plucky punter.
