“Now We Know Why”- Fans Pile Down on Billionaire Rapper Drake for Canada’s Big Upset at the FIFA WC Against a Disappointing Belgium

Canada’s soccer team is playing in the first FIFA World Cup since 1986. They finished on the top of the World Cup qualifiers table with eight wins from 14 games. It has been an incredible journey as they managed to finish above giants such as Mexico and the USMNT. However, they entered the World Cup in impressive form after beating Japan in a friendly. But, they went goalless in their loss to Belgium in the opening game. However, many are blaming Drake for Canada’s woes as Davis posted a picture alongside him before the game.

Drake is a huge Canada supporter and has picked the Maple Leafs over USMNT. His support for Canada was visible when his song played inside the stadium ahead of Canada vs Belgium in the Qatar WC.

Moreover, Canadian star Alphonso Davies’ picture alongside the rapper resurfaced after the game.

Canada’s loss shouldn’t come as a shock to many, as Belgium is one of the best teams in the world. The 2nd ranked FIFA side, however, struggled against Canada throughout the game. Canada had more than 20 shots but failed to score. After the game, fans looked convinced of Drake’s curse.

Following are some of the reactions:

Canada’s performance against Belgium shocked many. They played their first World Cup game in 36 years and managed to control the game. However, Belgium’s goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois’s heroic dives snatched the game away from the North American side.

Canada plays their next game against the last World Cup’s runners-up Croatia in their next game. It is going to be a tough one for them, but they have the potential to beat a side like Croatia.

Canada is placed in group B at the Qatar World Cup alongside Belgium, Croatia, and Morocco. Croatia and Morocco played a scoreless draw which has increased Canada’s chances of knockout stages. However, they would still need to win their remaining games to book a place in the Round of 16.
