The group, consisting of four friends who have been playing together for two and a half years and will each receive €65,638.
The head of the Cork syndicate shared how close they came to missing out on the prize.
'Myself and another syndicate member were debating who would buy the ticket for that night’s EuroMillions draw. I convinced him I would, as I wanted to grab a chocolate bar for my evening treat. If I’d let him buy it, we’d have missed out on €65,000 each!'
Rounding out the day of winners was a player from Kildare, who collected a cheque for €82,584.
