The customer bravely placed a fiver after betting on seven teams to win, with both teams to score in each match over the weekend.

The accumulator stretched across five divisions, ranging from League One and non-league in England as well as two divisions in Scotland.

And his ambitious acca turned into a winning betting slip when Andy Williams scored for the Cobblers in the 97th minute and Antoine Semenyo to score for Newport in the 98th minute.

Alex Apati of said: "It was very much a weekend for favourite-backers in the lower leagues of football across the UK and while plenty of accas landed, this has to be the biggest and best we've seen for some time."
