Drake loses $300k bet on Canada as Argentina dominates in Copa America

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

Currently, two major national team tournaments are being played. In addition to Euro 2024, the United States is hosting the Copa America competition for the second time in history.

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

The Canadian team had the support of well-known rapper Drake. The 37-year-old from Canada decided to bet on his compatriots' victory.

The musician invested $300,000, which could have earned him $2.9 million. However, he was up against the odds, as Argentina was the clear favorite in this match.

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

The official team 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 Drake, as both rappers are feuding.
