In 2022, the champion's final was painful for some due to lost bets, while others managed to profit from the outcome of this event.
Legendary English striker Gary Lineker's son George Lineker shared his successful bet, winning over 4,000 British pounds.
George Lineker predicted that the main time in the final would end in a 2-2 result, with Argentina triumphing after an 11-meter penalty shootout, also mentioning Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi, and the number of yellow cards and corner kicks.
The former striker's descendant won 4,273 pounds.
"You might have just ruined your reputation as the worst player of all time," Gary Lineker jokingly responded to his son's social media post.
