The winning numbers for Saturday night’s Irish Lotto draw<\/a> are in, and while there was no outright winner of the \u20ac2,693,222 jackpot, the draw delivered a heart stopping twist for one player who came agonisingly close.<\/p>\n Missing out by just a single number, the player still scooped a consolation prize of \u20ac46,511 for correctly matching five of the six main numbers plus the bonus.<\/p>\n Beyond the \u20ac46,511 prize, the rest of the main draw offered more modest wins. Fifteen players who matched five numbers without the bonus snagged prizes of \u20ac1,859 each.<\/p>\n The Lotto Plus 1<\/a> jackpot of \u20ac1 million also went unclaimed, with the highest prize being \u20ac500 for 19 lucky players who matched five numbers.<\/p>\n Similarly the Lotto Plus 2 jackpot of \u20ac250,000 saw no winner, but 19 players will get \u20ac250 each for matching five numbers.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Irish Lotto Raffle awarded \u20ac500 to 81 winners.<\/p>\n These are among over 73,000 players across Ireland who won prizes in Saturday night’s draw. National Lottery<\/a> officials are appealing for everyone to check their numbers carefully.<\/p>\n A spokesperson said: “There was no winner of the Lotto jackpot. In total, over 73,000 players won prizes in the Lotto and Lotto Plus draws, including one winner of the Match 5 + Bonus prize of \u20ac46,511.”<\/p>\n Irish Lotto results – Saturday, March 7<\/p>\n Main Lotto draw – 14, 24, 33, 34, 37, 43 and bonus 15<\/p>\n Lotto Plus 1 – 12, 14, 21, 28, 37, 47 and bonus 45<\/p>\n Lotto Plus 2 – 4, 14, 15, 31, 40, 47 and bonus 32<\/p>\n Winning Raffle number – 0700<\/p>\n Want to see more of the stories you love from the Irish Mirror?
