Drake Loses $300K Bet on Canada in Copa America Semifinal

Canadian superstar Drake lost a $300,000 bet he placed on his country to defeat Argentina in the Copa America semifinal.

Drake was expecting a payout of $2,880,000 if Canada had won, but they lost 2-0 to the reigning world champions at New York’s MetLife Stadium on Tuesday night.

Goals by Lionel Messi and Manchester City’s Julián Álvarez ensured Argentina’s spot in the final. Earlier on Tuesday afternoon, while sharing his bet slip on Instagram, the rapper had written: “This could get Messi @stake.”
