Drake loses $300,000 bet as Argentina defeats Canada in Copa América

Known rapper Drake decided to bet money that the Canadian team would eliminate Argentina in the Copa América. Ultimately, he lost CAD 300,000, as the Albicelestes won 2-0. Additionally, the official profile of the Argentinian team posted a telling entry regarding the 37-year-old's bet.

Two major national team tournaments are currently being played. In addition to Euro 2024, the United States is hosting the Copa América competition for the second time.

On Thursday (July 11), we will learn the second finalist of these games. The first to qualify was the Argentinian team, which, as expected, dismissed Canada (2-0). Julián Álvarez and Lionel Messi scored the goals. The Albicelestes will face either Uruguay or Colombia.

In the case of the Canadian team, they could count on the support of well-known rapper Drake. The 37-year-old from that country decided to bet money on the victory of his fellow Canadians.

The musician invested as much as CAD 1.18 million, which could have earned him CAD 11.4 million. However, he needed to cause a sensation, as Argentina was the clear favourite in this match.

Ultimately, the rapper lost the money he decided to bet on Canada, as they lost and were eliminated from the Copa América. Meanwhile, the Argentinians chose to react to the aforementioned bet.

The team's official account mocked Drake. In a social media post, they used a verse from Kendrick Lamar's song "Not Like Us." This diss track is aimed at the Canadian, as both rappers are feuding.
