Overview

  • After the six main numbers were drawn, the Superzahl procedure failed twice during Saturday’s broadcast in Germany.
  • Officials reported a first “Leerzug” with no ball retrieved, then two balls jammed behind the collection nozzle on the second attempt.
  • The drawing supervision intervened, ordered a repeat on the same device, and then completed the Superzahl on an on-site replacement machine.
  • The official results were published as 3, 9, 13, 21, 23, 27 with Superzahl 9 for a €12 million jackpot.
  • Lotto Saarland said replacement devices are maintained for such contingencies and rarely used, noting a similar interruption in January 2025.
