Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes stated: “We take our hat off to our man as he becomes the first football fan to land a monster 20 leg acca this season. It's no mean task choosing that lots of winners across the world on the very same day.”
He included: “With outcomes around the globe going his way the hero of the day can be found in the most not likely shape of an on-loan defender at a mid-table Portuguese side. We're sure a lot of individuals in Bolton are raising a glass to Rafa Soares this Bank Holiday weekend.”
