Liverpool-supporting Swansea postman wins £1MILLION jackpot on Super 6 after Mohamed Salah's late equaliser for the Reds against Arsenal

Lee Andrews, 53, didn't even realise he had won the £1million Super 6 jackpot
Three of his six selections only came through in stoppage time on Saturday

Mohamed Salah's 81st-minute equaliser for Liverpool at the Emirates earned the Reds a point against Arsenal and a Swansea postman £1million.

Lee Andrews, 53, took home the jackpot after correctly guessing six correct scorelines in the free-to-play football predictions game Super 6 last weekend.

Salah's strike was far from the most dramatic component of the Liverpool fan's bet, as his prediction included Bournemouth's 1-1 draw at Villa, Everton's home draw with Fulham and West Ham's win over Manchester United, with all three games decided with injury-time goals.

'I didn't even know I had won it.' said Andrews, who celebrated the win with his wife Gillian, and their daughter at their home in Swansea.

'I was looking at the wrong date on the Super 6 app, so it was telling me my score from another round! I had five or six missed calls from the Super 6 team but I thought it was spam, so I blocked the number. I only realised what was happening when my daughter told me she had seen that Super 6 were trying to contact a Lee from Swansea!'

Andrews becomes the second Super £1million jackpot winner after Tom Kane from Southampton won it last month. He scored the full 30 points for six correct scores.

The Welshman revealed that he and his wife intend to enjoy a well-earned rest with their winnings, having worked since he was a teenager.

'Both me and my wife are going to retire. My wife has already handed in her notice at Sainsbury's. I do six days a week and walk 8 and a half miles every day it's very difficult, especially at 53. I am really struggling with my legs now, and the thought that I don't have to do it anymore is incredible.'

'I have worked since I was 13 years of age, 40 years. I can't wait to have a rest.'

In addition to correctly guessing the outcomes at the Emirates, the London Stadium, Goodison and Villa Park, Andrews predicted the narrow wins for Chelsea and Manchester City.

Manchester City's 1-0 win against Southampton was correctly guessed by only 0.2 per cent of players

The latter, which came against Premier League strugglers Southampton, was only correctly predicted by 0.2 per cent of Super 6 players last weekend. Villa's draw also caught a large proportion of players out, with only 4.8 per cent of them picking the right full-time score.

Super 6 returns next week with £250,000 up for grabs.

Congratulations to Lee! He is obviously delighted to get out. Enjoy your early retirement!

I hope he is giving the ref some of the winnings.
