A football fan has won £1m after correctly guessing the scores in six weekend Premier League games.
Tom Kane, from Southampton, was waiting on Liverpool's 3-0 success over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday to complete his Sky Sports Super 6 predictions.
Following the match, the Super Six page posted on X appealing to Mr Kane to "keep your mobile phone handy - you're about to receive the phone call of a lifetime".
His predictions included Bournemouth, who had trailed Everton by 2-0 with just minutes remaining, beating the Toffees 3-2.

Mr Kane correctly guessed the results of these games played on Saturday and Sunday:
Leicester City 1-2 Aston Villa
Everton 2-3 AFC Bournemouth
Nottingham Forrest 1-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers
West Ham United 1-3 Manchester City
Newcastle United 2-1 Tottenham Hotspur
Manchester United 0-3 Liverpool
The Super 6 account posted: "It's finally happened! Six correct scores! Indications suggest that #Super6 has just made one lucky player a millionaire!"
Mr Kane must have thought he had no chance as Everton were comfortably leading Bournemouth until a dramatic turnaround saw the Cherries come out on top.
One can only imagine how he felt after Liverpool matched his 3-0 prediction with most of the second half still to play.
