Soccer, or I guess football, is actually life to a lot of people. For Argentinians, that is undoubtedly true. So, when you bet against Messi, prepare for things to get messy\u2014and quite funny\u2014when you bet wrong.<\/p>\n

Back on Monday, 37-year-old\u00a0Drake<\/strong><\/a> shared a screenshot onto his Instagram stories where he bet $300,000 in the hopes of a $2.88 million payout along with a difficult victory for Canada.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Argentina, the defending champions, defeated Canada in the Copa Am\u00e9rica semifinal. To hit back at the \u2018Headline\u2019 singer, the Argentinian National Football Team shared a post on X<\/a> with a reference Drake wouldn\u2019t miss.<\/p>\n

The caption wrote, \u201cNot like us, not with us<\/strong>\ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddf7\u201d<\/p>\n

It has felt like one loss after another for Drake since Kendrick Lamar<\/strong><\/a> dropped his \u2018hit of the summer\u2019<\/a> (as quoted by Serena Williams<\/strong><\/a>, an ex-fling of Drake), along with the visuals.<\/p>\n

The bet was not a one-off situation. People call it\u2026.the \u201cDrake Curse\u201d<\/a>, where he supports or bets money on something to happen in sports, and the opposite often occurs. He bet against the wrong team for the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup, losing him $1 million. Six zeros. Six! He\u2019s lost nearly $2.5 million worth of bets since March of this year.<\/p>\n

Argentina is the team of Lionel Messi<\/strong><\/a>, 37, who is widely considered the greatest football player of all time. But Messi gave the opposite team its flowers as Canada had been enjoying a remarkable run in their first-ever Copa Am\u00e9rica tournament.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be honest, it has been a difficult tournament, the level has been as equal as ever, very bad surfaces, high temperatures that make it hard to play, very tough rivals. So, the fact we made it and we are here again playing a final is something to enjoy and highlight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moving forward, Argentina is looking to secure a record 16th Copa Am\u00e9rica title and will play either Uruguay\u00a0or\u00a0Colombia\u00a0in Sunday\u2019s final.<\/p>\n
