The luck of the Irish has struck again as a ticket sold in the country netted almost ?89m in the Euromillions lottery on Tuesday night. The National Lottery in Dublin confirmed that there was one winner from Ireland of the Europe-wide ?88.58m (?75.86m) jackpot. The lucky winner had a match of five numbers and two stars ? numbers 01, 05, 07, 17 and 23 with stars 03 and 08. It was unclear where exactly in Ireland the ticket was bought or whether it belonged to a syndicate. There have been nine Euromillions winners from Ireland so far, including the biggest jackpot winner, Dolores McNamara.
