    Drake placed an extraordinary bet earlier this week, as he revealed he had placed a $300k wager on Canada. Had they been victorious, he would have pocketed $2.8m (£2m), but Argentina won 2-0 thanks to goals from Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi.

    Argentina's X account clearly knew of Drake's wager and chose to send some shade the rapper's way. Of course, Drake has been engaged in a beef with Kendrick recently, although many fans and critics have made it clear that, just like with his bet, the Canadian has been defeated.

  • WHAT ARGENTINA POSTED

    Argentina made reference to Kendrick's immediately iconic diss track 'Not Like Us' after full-time. The official AFA account posted a picture of Messi and his Argentina team-mates celebrating with the caption: "Not like us, not with us."
