Mxolisi Mngoma couldn’t believe his luck when he discovered that he would be jetting out to Spain. The Umbumbulu resident is the second winner in Hollywoodbets’ El Clasico promotion.
The 28-year-old vendor who makes his living selling soft drinks and snacks on Durban’s beachfront is an avid Real Madrid fan and can’t wait for the opportunity to see his heroes in the flesh! “When I first got the call to say that I had won, I just couldn’t believe it! Even now, my friends and family say they still don’t believe it, it will probably only sink in once I’m in the airport ready to leave. It will be the first time I have ever travelled overseas” he said.
Mngoma has only been betting with Hollywoodbets for three months. “When I first heard about the competition I thought that I might have a small chance of winning. I was still very surprised when they called me, I couldn’t contain my excitement,” said a beaming Mngoma.
“I think I am most looking forward to the match. The stadium is beautiful and will be full on the day of the game. I can’t wait to experience the singing and the shouting as the players walk out onto the field.”
Wayde Dorkin, the Soccer Brand Manager for Hollywoodbets absolutely loves promotions of this nature. “As a company, we love sending our customers to games they ordinarily could only dream of watching live. We sent customers to this fixture last season and received such great feedback that we simply had to bring it back and give more of our punters the opportunity to experience the world’s fiercest soccer derby!”
