A goal from Doncaster Rovers helped a punter scoop a £25,000 win from a £5 stake.

The subsititute’s second half goal in Saturday’s win over Port Vale at the Eco Power Stadium was crucial as part of a 12-fold accumulator bet – with a 96th minute winner by Everton securing the unnamed punter the huge cash pot.

The bet looked set to fail only for Amadou Onana to score in 96th minute – the only goal of the game as the Toffees beat Stoke 1-0 in a pre-season friendly.

William Hill spokesperson Lee Phelps said on the win: "Pre-season friendlies are famously difficult to predict.

"It will be hard to find another football bet this campaign to top this 12-fold off-season win.

"The final stages of the Stoke City versus Everton match must have been nerve-wrecking as the other results had come in.”
