United would either have to win the second half by a single goal or fight all the way back to a draw. So wretched was their first half performance though, that the player must have feared they would concede even more.<\/p>\n<p>They didn&#8217;t, however. The Red Devils pulled a goal back through Marcus Rashford in the 70<sup>th<\/sup> minute and the match ended 3-1, getting the first correct score in the bag.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile in Reims, despite the hosts suffering a 59<sup>th<\/sup> minute red card, they were able to hold on for a goalless draw, which just happened to be the player\u2019s only selection in that leg of the ticket.<\/p>\n<p>After two legs, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/solo-player-correct-score\/\">player had two correct scores<\/a> and things were looking extremely positive.<\/p>\n<p>The ticket resumed the following night with a further pair of league cup encounters from either side of the channel. This time Lyon were taking on Brest and, in England, it was Leicester vs. Aston Villa.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly sensing two similar encounters, the player opted for the same pair of correct scores in each leg, 3-1 to the home side in addition to 1-1 in both matches and was rewarded well when goals from Moussa Dembele, Houssem Aouar and Jean Lucas helped Lyon to a comfortable 3-1 win over their opposition.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image30.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-26939\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image30-300x105.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"105\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image30-300x105.png 300w, https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image30-768x268.png 768w, https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image30.png 821w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Three correct scores were in the bag and it was all down to Leicester and Villa. Leicester were heavy favourites so, when Aston Villa took the lead in the 28<sup>th<\/sup> minute, it was an extremely positive start given the two results that the player had selectied. If Leicester could respond by claiming either a draw or a 3-1 win, the ticket would be home.<\/p>\n<p>The match wore on and, despite dominating, Leicester couldn\u2019t find a way through. The 70<sup>th<\/sup> minute ticked over and the player must have been growing concerned that Villa would manage to frustrate them for the full 90 and they would be a single correct score short of the jackpot.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, in the 74<sup>th<\/sup> minute, Kelechi Iheanacho was set up by Jamie Vardy and made no mistake with his finish. The score was 1-1 and, with no further strikes, that was how it finished. The ticket had won!<\/p>\n<p>15,363 Units had been reduced to just 1.22, a 99.9% reduction. The player had beaten the pool and landed a phenomenal \u00a326,063 return for their initial \u00a316 stake, a 1,628x increase!<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations from all of us at Colossus on an incredible effort!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Colossus player landed an extraordinary win on Wednesday night when they took down the Rollover Correct Score \u2013 Pick 4 pool which had reached a massive \u00a331,132.
