Canadian rapper Drake has reportedly won big after Canada's dramatic 1-0 victory over South Africa national football team in the FIFA World Cup Round of 32.
Before the match, Drake placed a $770,000 wager on his home country to advance, with a potential payout of $1 million through Stake.
Canada secured the historic win thanks to a stoppage-time strike from captain Stephen Eustáquio, sending the co-hosts into the Round of 16 for the first time in their World Cup history.
The high-profile bet also revived discussions around the so-called "Drake curse"—the popular belief that teams and athletes backed by the musician often lose. This time, however, Canada defied the superstition and delivered the result Drake predicted
According to reports, Drake shared the betting slip on social media and joked that he increased the stakes after friendly banter with South African DJ Black Coffee in his direct messages.
