Irish player lands life-changing prize in mega €220m EuroMillions jackpot draw
A lucky Irish EuroMillions player has kicked off their weekend in style after winning a life-changing six-figure prize in Friday night's draw. The lucky punter was one of 10 winners of the Ireland-Only Raffle in Friday's draw. And while that prize is usually worth €5,000, the National Lottery has added an additional prize of €250,000 for one winner of the Ireland-Only Raffle for all nine draws during the month of May. As a result, the EuroMillions player in question will wake up tomorrow morning a cool €255,000 richer thanks to their winning raffle number - I- SDZ-53784. The other nine Ireland-Only raffle numbers, all worth €5,000 apiece, can be seen here. In total, over 81,000 players in Ireland won prizes in Friday night's EuroMillions and EuroMillions Plus games. In the main EuroMillions draw, the numbers called were: 04, 07, 14, 33, 36 and the Lucky Stars were 01 and 05. No players in Europe managed to bag the €218m jackpot on offer in this draw, although one Irish player did come agonisingly close to scooping the massive sum after missing out on the mammoth jackpot by just one correct number. However, the Irish player still has reason to celebrate after bagging the 4 + 2 Stars prize worth a cool €1,557. Meanwhile the numbers to look out for in Friday's EuroMillions Plus jackpot are 21, 36, 38, 44 and 48. The €500,000 jackpot up for grabs in this draw also went unclaimed, although 92 players in Ireland did €2,000 each after matching four correct numbers. Players across Ireland are now being urged to check their tickets to see if they are among the 81,000 people here who won prizes in tonight's EuroMillions and Plus games. If you hold a winning ticket that you bought in a shop, you must claim your prize within 90 days of the applicable draw date. Ireland's big EuroMillions winner can contact the National Lottery Claims Department at 1800 666 222 (Monday to Friday, 9.15am to 5.30pm) to arrange for collection.
