One punter narrowly missed out on winning £92,000 from one bet after Real Madrid failed to beat Sevilla on Saturday.
Dani Carvajal rescued a late point for Real after David Alaba's own goal had put Sevilla ahead at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium.
But that wasn't enough for Twitter user @CharlesTaylor99 to win nearly £92,000, after he bet £5 on an 18-fold accumulator over the weekend.

His weekend got off to an ideal start, with wins for Manchester City, Newcastle and Brentford in the Premier League.
He also received an 'early payout' from Nottingham Forest to beat Luton - the bet was settled as a win under bet365's 'early payout' offer when Forest went 2-0 up, despite Luton coming back to draw 2-2. That would, however, have eliminated him from pocketing a bonus of over £37,000.
Blackburn, Huddersfield, Southampton and Leicester all won in the Championship, as well as Rangers in the Scottish Premiership and RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, meaning the fan had 10 of his 18 matches ticked off heading into the evening kick-offs on Saturday.
And while Inter Milan went into a 2-0 lead against Torino, all eyes turned to Seville when the hosts went in front on 74 minutes.

And although Real got the equaliser shortly afterwards, they could not find a winner.
To make matters even worse for the fan, every other team left on his accumulator secured victory on either the Saturday evening or the Sunday.
At the time of his screenshot, his cash out amount stood at just over £35.
He is not the only punter to miss out on big money in recent weeks.

Twitter user @RyanHall_10 placed a 950/1 bet last month which included Luis Diaz to score for Liverpool against Tottenham at any time.
All of his other picks came in, but Diaz's goal was now infamously ruled for offside in an incorrect decision by VAR official Darren England.
Although he narrowly missed out on pocketing a huge sum, the same user did win around £5,000 days later on a separate horse racing bet.
