Nigerian musician Adekunle Gold playfully ridiculed fellow artist Joeboy after he lost a ₦3 million wager on Real Madrid’s defeat of Arsenal during the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal clash at London’s Emirates Stadium on Tuesday.
Before the match, Joeboy had shared a screenshot of his bet slip on the social media platform X, staking ₦3 million on a Real Madrid victory. Had the Spanish team triumphed, Joeboy would have stood to gain ₦10.3 million. However, Arsenal’s dominant 3-0 win dashed his hopes, resulting in the loss of his stake.
Alongside the bet slip, Joeboy quipped, “Cashing out on Arsenal tears tonight!”—a boast that backfired after the final whistle. Seizing the moment, Adekunle Gold reposted the tweet post-match, humorously writing, “Lmao. You don’t go blow stream money. Next time, face your club,” poking fun at his peer’s costly misprediction.
The exchange highlights the high-stakes banter between the two artists, underscoring Arsenal’s unexpected dominance in the high-profile European fixture.
