More risky than Kun Aguero's, the unusual bet from Drake for the Argentina vs Canada in Copa America

Sergio Aguero is not a professional footballer anymore, but he still shows support for the Argentina national team. The former Manchester City striker has made big bets for the Argentina national team, which he believes will win the Copa America and that Lionel Messi will win the best player of the tournament award. These bets seem realistic, but as the tournament progresses, he will find out if he will win the bet. Argentina will be taking on Canada at the Copa America semifinals today, and a big supporter of the Canadian national team is the Canadian rapper Drake. He is known to make big bets on sporting events, and he did not miss out on this match in the Copa America. Drake has bet $300,000 on Canada to win against Argentina in the Copa America semi-finals today. If Canada manages to win, Drake would make $2.8 million. Drake's betting on sports has not been good for him as he usually loses the bets he picks on.

Canada is not the favorite against Argentina, but the amount of money that Drake is putting down is what shocks many football fans. Some believe that the $300k he put down is a huge mistake and a waste of money, but in football, anything can happen. Canada and Argentina already played each other in this Copa America as they were both in Group A. The match between Canada and Argentina was the opener of the tournament at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.

Argentina defeated Canada 2-0, but the game was not as straightforward as the scoreline suggested. Canada was arguably the better team in the first half of that match, and at halftime, it was 0-0. Argentina took the lead in the 49th minute thanks to a goal by Julian Alvarez, and then the game was sealed as Lautaro Martinez scored the second in the 88th minute.
