Betting, Inter lose in Champions League final but they win: a double bet worth €200,000. Here’s how and where it happened
Inter played it out against Manchester City in the final in Istanbul. They played it like nobody expected: with personality and courage, and with a tactical choice, that of Inzaghi, against the strongest team in the world, which almost paid off. It was a pity, because the Nerazzurri at least could have taken it to extra time, especially if Lukaku had managed to beat Ederson from a few steps.
But the goalkeeper’s leg save from Guardiola’s team really made some bettors in Rome happy, specifically at the Goldbet agency in Piazza Giovanni da Verrazzano, Garbatella area. As told by Agimeg, a group of friends last summer had decided to bet on City as a possible Champions League winning team. A stake at four times the stakes that made them very enthusiastic. Over the months, moreover, this group of friends, seeing what was happening in Europe, also decided to raise the stakes, betting more times on this possibility. But not only that, they also decided to bet on more.
Betting, double play gives big winnings
Not just the Citizens, who were able to score the big one with Rodri’s goal, but also Barcelona’s La Liga victory, which at one point, when Xavi’s troops had given Real Madrid a few points, was given at 2.50 times the stake

These friends decided to combine these two odds over the course of the year and waited until Saturday night to dream up the shot of a lifetime. And in the end they succeeded, hitting an overall sum of 200,000 euros. A dream summer then – we do not know the number of participants in this bet – a summer that will surely be experienced differently. We dare not imagine the joy when Marciniak blew the whistle at the end of the Ataturk match, an indescribable joy for them and their families. Because let’s say even if there were ten of them, they each had 20,000 euros in their pockets. Not bad at a time like this.
