Argentina made it to the Copa America final, and it made sure Drake knew all about it.
Lionel Messi and Julián Álvarez scored in Argentina’s 2-0 win over Canada in the Copa America semifinal at MetLife Stadium on Tuesday. The defending World Cup champions will face the winner of the Uruguay-Colombia matchup Wednesday, and it will have a chance to win its 16th Copa America title Sunday.
It was revealed before Tuesday’s kickoff that Drake made a $300,000 bet on his home country to beat La Selección. The Argentinian national team’s social media accounts made sure to rub its win in the rapper’s face with its victory social media post.
“Not like us, not with us,” the Argentina X account read with a graphic featuring “Not Like Us.”
For those not in tune with rapper beefs, “Not Like Us” is the title of Kendrick Lamar’s diss track toward Drake. The song also was featured on the Argentinian national team’s Instagram account, too, to further highlight its point.
It was a tough night to be a Canadian on Tuesday night, and while Drake occasionally wins his sports bets, it marked another significant loss for him. But for the 37-year-old, $300,000 probably is only a minor loss.
