EuroMillions ticket worth €175 million sold in Ireland - Midwest Radio

Last night's EuroMillions jackpot, worth 175 million Euro, was won by a single ticket bought in Ireland.

It hasn't been confirmed where the winning ticket was bought but the holder has become the biggest Irish lotto jackpot winner ever.

The winning numbers were 1,8, 18, 19 and 39 - the lucky stars were 7 and 9.

The National Lottery says it may take a few days to pinpoint where the winning ticket was sold.

The record-breaking win is higher than the €115 million won by Limerick woman Dolores McNamara in 2005.

This is the 14th Irish EuroMillions win, since the game was launched here in 2004.

Two of the winning tickets were sold in Castlebar - in April 2014, a prize of €15 million was claimed on a ticket sold at Staunton's Costcutter in Castlebar, and in July 2017, a syndicate from the West of Ireland won a €29 million Euromillions jackpot after buying their ticket in Garryduff XL store on Pound Road in Castlebar.
