A lucky player has scooped £193 million in Europe’s biggest ever lottery win.
The unnamed player from Italy has beaten the record set by former couple Colin and Chris Weir, from Scotland, who won £161 million on the Euromillions in 2011.
They bought a ticket for the Superenalotto draw, and managed to correctly guess six numbers between 1 and 90.
The prize was so huge because it had rolled over for over a year, with nobody guessing the numbers correctly since June 2018.
This time, the winning numbers were 7, 32, 41, 59, 75 and 76.
Whoever won bought their ticket for two euros at Marino’s bar in the city of Lodi near Milan in northern Italy.
Guglielmo Poggi, the bar’s manager, told Italian media he had ‘no idea’ who bought it.
The amount beats the previous Superenalotto record of 177 million euros (£108 million) won in October 2010 by a syndicate.
It also beats any Euromillions win, where the jackpot is limited to 190 million euros.
Congratulations!
