by Tim Hanlon · The MirrorA lucky punter has won £17million in Friday's EuroMillions draw with the jackpot ticket bought in Ireland.
The country's National Lottery has confirmed that the massive amount was won by a person taking part in Ireland and there has just been one person with the right numbers.
The winning numbers were 7, 25, 30, 37, 41 with lucky stars 5 and 11. In June, Ireland had its largest ever EuroMillions win, with a ticket worth 250 million euros purchased in Cork city.
Tickets, priced at £2.50, are available to buy until 7.30pm on draw nights. Even if you don’t win the whopping jackpot, there are still hefty prizes if you manage to match one or more numbers. One person is guaranteed to win £1,000,000 with the Millionaire Maker game - everyone with a ticket is automatically entered into this draw.
On Tuesday one lucky winner of the EuroMillions took home a jaw-dropping £125million. A total of seven ticketholders managed to bag the second prize - matching all five main numbers plus one Life Ball. A prize of £372,679 has been split between them, giving them a whopping £74,535.80 each.
The biggest EuroMillions win in history was claimed earlier this year, with one lucky punter in Cork, Ireland bagging a whopping €250million (£215m).
A National Lottery spokesperson commented in July that they're giving the winner time to "let this life-changing win sink in".
