A German national strolled into a William Hill shop in central London on Tuesday afternoon and placed £41,000 on his home country winning this years Euros at 13/8. It is believed that he was on a business trip in London and he said that this was his first ever wager which if it cops will scoop the gutsy chap a staggering £107,625. The price has been shortened from 13/8 to 6/4 and makes Germany the stand alone favourites ahead of Spain at 7/4 and Italy and Portugal both 11/2.

It is believed that the German gent was on a business trip in London and to our knowledge, he has never placed a bet before in his life, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly. Amazingly his is the biggest single wager that we have taken over the course of this years Euros.

Northern Ireland have been pushed out to 7/1 from 6/1 to qualify for Euro 2012 following their disappointing draw 1-1 with the Faroe Islands on Tuesday afternoon.

Nigel Worthingtons side were odds on favourites to beat the minnows, but they were only saved an embarrassing defeat when Kyle Lafferty equalised in the 76th minute.

Northern Ireland are now quoted as 14/1 shots to win Group C by William Hill who make Italy the 4/11 favourites to win the Group.

Northern Ireland seem to have no problem competing against the big teams in Europe – its the lesser teams who are the problem, said William Hill spokesman Tony Kenny They put in a brilliant performance against Italy last week, but they failed to follow it up in the Faroes.
