The shop which sold a winning EuroMillions ticket worth €86.7m has finally been revealed.

A syndicate picked up the jackpot over a week ago with a €6 Quick Pick bought at Centra on the Church Road in Ballybrack, Co Dublin.

They collected their winnings from the National Lottery Headquarters last week. It marked the third biggest win in National Lottery history.

No specifics have been given about the syndicate - except to say they wish to remain anonymous.

Speaking at National Lottery offices last week, the winners said "We're on top of the world."

This latest win brings the total amount won by Euromillions players in Ireland to over €751m.

Ireland is becoming one of the luckiest places in Europe to buy a Euromillions ticket.

Last March, Staunton's Costcutter Express in Castlebar, Co Mayo sold a €15m winning ticket. In September 2013, a man from the south east shared a jackpot of over €25.6m with a player in Spain, taking home €12.8m.

He purchased his lucky ticket in Ardkeen Superstores, Waterford. While in June 2013 a lucky player scooped €94m in Beaumont, Dublin 9.
