Mia Khalifa held nothing back throughout the 2026 World Cup. She mocked Messi, coined the phrase “VARgentina” and never missed an opportunity to take shots at the Argentina national team.
But this time she decided to back up her provocations with real money: $1 million bet on Spain in the final.
When the referee blew the final whistle, Spain took the Cup 1-0 after extra time. And Khalifa walked away with $1.65 million in her pocket, nearly $650,000 in pure profit. All while posing in Lamine Yamal’s jersey as if it were her own trophy.
The curious thing is that the move had not always worked out for her: in the semifinals, she had bet against Argentina and lost, when Enzo Fernández and Lautaro Martínez sent their national team to the final.
This time, the result proved her right, and she did not hesitate to rub it in.
