The Canadian team could count on the support of well-known rapper Drake. The 37-year-old from that country decided to bet money on his compatriots' victory.
The musician placed as much as €275,000 on Canada flops as Argentina triumph, which could have earned him €2,73 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 America. Meanwhile, the Argentinians decided to react to the aforementioned bet.
