A Belgian has been named among the winners of a gargantuan €145 million EuroMillions "mega-jackpot", Belga News Agency reports.
The Belgian's victory on Tuesday evening follows the success of other lucky Belgians on 6 December last year – Sinterklaas day – when a group near Antwerp collectively won €142 million.
The latest triumph is the third-largest jackpot ever won by a Belgian. In June 2017, a Belgian won a total of €153,873,716, while another pocketed €168,085,323 in October 2016.

According to the National Lottery, "35 players in Belgium have already had the chance to become scandalously rich thanks to EuroMillions since 2004".
