William Hill have paid out a six figure sum to punters who backed Frank Lampard to score at Anytime against Germany on Sunday – Lampard was available at 10/3. 

Lampard's first half strike clearly crossed the line but the goal wasn't given by assistant referee Maurico Espinosa. 

Ladbrokes also paid out on their 'Geoff Hurst special' which needed an England player to score with the ball going in off the crossbar at 10/1. 

FIFA President Sepp Blatter has since apologised for the mistake and a committee with re-consider bringing in the use of goal-line technology.
