Reacting to the news on Twitter, she said: “In total shock.

“First time I’ve ever won any competition. What a first.

“I don’t answer unknown mobile numbers but I’m glad I did.

“We’re on our way.”

Later this afternoon, the Glasgow Times caught up with Natalia at Glasgow Airport as she and her family prepared to embark on their journey to Seville.

She said: “I entered the competition a few weeks ago but didn’t really think anything of it.

“When I got the phone call this morning, I couldn’t believe it.

“The guy told me that thousands of people had entered but I was the only winner.

“You don’t really expect things like that to happen.

“We’re really excited.”

In an extra stroke of luck, Natalia and her family had already planned to travel to Tenerife this week for her delayed 21st birthday celebrations.

Just as excited to be attending the Wednesday’s historic Rangers vs Eintracht Frankfurt final, Natalia’s dad, Bill, said: “You should have heard her this morning when she got the phone call.

“We were busy getting organised for the trip when I heard a banging at the door.

“She was saying ‘dad, we’ve got two tickets!’

“The response to her post about winning on Facebook and Twitter since has been incredible.

“She was absolutely over the moon.

“It’s going to be grand.”
