TTP Bookie: Euro 2004 Portugal v England

[Regs]

That would be fine but I left the "draw" bit up as a bit of a piss-take. No where did I state anywhere that if the game went to PKs it would be considered a draw.

The result stands as far as TTP Bookie Events go

Bidders offer millions for Beckham penalty miss ball from Euro 2004
14/07/2004 9:50:00 AM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MADRID (AP) - David Beckham's errant penalty kick in the shootout of the Euro 2004 quarter-final against Portugal was costly for England.

But the ball the soccer star blazed into the stands on June 24 is proving even costlier. It has attracted a bid of 10 million euros ($16.3 million Cdn) on an Internet auction site and promises to make a multimillionaire of the Spaniard who caught it in the stands.

Pablo Carral, who was sitting high in Lisbon's Luz stadium, soon realised he was in possession of more than a souvenir when he received an offer of 18,000 euros ($29,400 Cdn) from a British newspaper.

Corral, 25, then decided to test the water by offering the ball for sale on the Spanish site of Internet auctioneers eBay (www.es.ebay.com).

Starting at one euro ($1.63 Cdn), bids for the made-in-Thailand ball, which bears the date and venue of the game, have soared as high as Beckham's misjudged shot that led to England's elimination from the tournament.

"The incredible thing was that the ball reached our row because we were sitting a long way from the goal," Corral was quoted by sports daily As. "To leave the stadium, I was guarded by two friends whilst I hid it in my clothes."

Corral must wait until July 22 when the auction closes to claim his windfall. Ebay's conditions state that bids can only be withdrawn in exceptional circumstances.


Anybody going to make a bid?
