Betfair Canada Blog: Premiership Betting: Ashley Young delivers 439-1 early Christmas miracle
<strong>Betfair summary of two of the most hectic and exciting minutes of inplay football betting on Betfair as Ashley Young ensures at least one Villa backer will feel the credit crunch a little less this Christmas...</strong>
<strong>Aston Villa</strong> were matched at odds of 440 (439-1) on Betfair to beat Everton in what must surely go down as one of the most hectic two minutes of inplay football betting ever on Betfair, not to mention the history of the Premiership.
With less than a minute of stoppage time left, Aston Villa were trading at odds of 1.04 (1-25), with the draw trading at a high of 26 (25-1). Everton defender Joleon Lescott, a childhood Villa fan, scored his second of the match to level the scores but with just enough time to re-start the match, Villa's <strong>Ashley Young </strong>found a gap in Everton's defence to run through and score a last-gasp winner.
After Everton's equaliser, Villa had drifted to odds of 440 (439-1) and £14 was traded on the away side at this price. With a share of the spoils looking a certainty, over £124,000 was traded on the draw at Betfair's minimum price of 1.01 (1-100).
Betfair Spokesman <strong>James Pacheco </strong>said: "Villa's short-priced backers must have been tearing their hair out as Lescott equalised so late on for Everton but Ashley Young bailed them out in the end. With less than a minute on the clock, Villa had drifted to odds of 440 (439-1) on Betfair and the former Watford man delivered an early Christmas miracle for those who believed."
