Punter turns £10 Stake into £10k

The first selection of the Sunday double saw huge outsiders Pathumthani United to beat last season's Champions league runners up Borussia Dortmund.

At 66/167.00 the Thai outfit were given no chance by the Betfair Sportsbook but the savvy punter was overjoyed to see them steamroll Dortmund 4-0.

A huge upset at the odds and the level both teams are known for playing at in their respective countries. However, although it was a pre-season friendly Dortmund still put out a strong team with the likes of Julian Brandt, Karim Adeyemi and Niklas Sule all starting the game.

With the biggest price of the two legs of the double in, attention turned to the all french tie of Marseille v Nimes, where the away team were 16/117.00 to beat the hosts at the Centre d'entrainement Robert-Louis-Dreyfus.
