FIFA World Cup 2022 final: Drake loses $1m bet even after betting on Argentina. Know what happened

Drake reportedly lost $1 million, which is around £818,000 wager on the FIFA World Cup final. Argentina defeated France on penalties in the final on Sunday (December 18).

However, Drake - who placed his funds on Argentina - lost his bet owing to a technicality, Vulture claims. He reportedly placed a bet on the team winning on a "1x2" market bet, which indicates that the team must win in regular time.

But, sadly for the "God's Plan" singer, the match was forced to be taken to extra time as well as penalties when France scored in the final minute of extra time.

What have supporters had to say about the news?

Many supporters and followers have joked that Drake is plagued in sports since multiple teams had lost when he openly supported them. AS Roma even prohibited their players from taking photographs with him.

In other Drake news, the singer surprised fans by admitting he had a bespoke necklace fashioned for him, allegedly from all the times he considered proposing to a lover. The new piece of jewellery appears to be composed entirely of engagement rings that he considered proposing.

The necklace, dubbed "Previous Engagements," was supposedly created to commemorate all the times he considered proposing but never did. It was created by Alex Moss in New York, who uploaded it on their Instagram page, characterizing it as a real miracle of the jewellery industry.
