The Argentine Football Association has criticized the Canadian artist Drake after he lost a $300,000 bet.

Drake had made a bet on his country's Copa America semifinal match against Argentina.

He was set to receive $2.8 million if Jesse Marsch won the game on Tuesday night.

However, goals from Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi helped Albiceleste win 2-0.

In a statement on social media following the game, Argentina drew reference to Kendrick Lamar’s renowned diss hit ‘Not Like Us’ targeted at Drake.

The official AFA account shared a photo of Messi and his Argentina teammates celebrating, with the caption, "Not like us, not with us."
