The group added that a total of almost £400,000 was also shared out between over 15,000 winners.

Argentina lifted the famous trophy on Sunday after defeating France on penalties, with the highly entertaining match firstly finishing 2-2 after normal time and 3-3 after extra time. The South Americans then won 4-2 on spot kicks.

The victory saw one player of the predictor score 830 points overall, 10 more points than the runner-up. A total of 10 points were awarded for each correct prediction in the group stage.

Each correct prediction in the last 16 was then worth 20 points, with bet365 noting that several players picked up plenty of points as seven of the eight favourites won their respective matches.

A total of 40 points were then up for grabs in the quarter-finals, with footballing giants Brazil and Portugal both falling at this hurdle, much to the anguish of many players of the predictor. Those backing England were also let down as the Three Lions lost to France.

Correct predictions in the semi-final were worth 80 points, with 160 points awarded for correctly predicting the winner of the final.

A statement from bet365 read: “While three players each scooped the first, second and third prizes of £100,000, £25,000 and £15,000, 13 players came in a tie for fourth, each winning £10,000.

“A total of 58 players received a prize of £1,000 or more.”
