DES MOINES, Iowa — One of the tickets sold in Missouri for the Powerball game Wednesday night matched all six numbers drawn, which were: 16-26-34-35-41 (Powerball 24; Power Play: 4).

The player with the matching numbers won the $224.2 million jackpot. The prize goes to an estimated $15 million for Saturday.

Tickets that match the first five numbers, but miss the Powerball, win $200,000 each, and there were nine of those. They were sold in Arizona, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and West Virginia.

There was a Power Play Match 5 winner in Pennsylvania.
