    Fact checked by: James Leeland

    This betting term is the act of having a successful bet with a very late goal or touchdown that sees you cover the spread.

    The wording ‘back door’ becomes more appropriate if your bet looks down and out for the majority of the match, but finally comes through with seconds left on the clock.
