Poland goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has said that he lost a €100 bet with Lionel Messi before the Argentina forward missed a penalty during his team's 2-0 World Cup win at Stadium 974 in Qatar.
Reported from foreign media, that goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Julian Alvarez were enough to seal victory and top spot in Group C for the 2021 Copa America winners, who will now face Australia in the Round of 16 on Saturday.
"We spoke before the penalty and I told would bet him €100 that he [referee] wasn't going to give it," Szczesny told TV2. "So I've lost a bet against Messi.
"I don't know if that's allowed at the World Cup -- I'm probably going to get banned for it! But I don't care right now.
"I'm not going to pay him either -- he doesn't care about €100 I think he has enough."
For Szczesny, it was his second penalty save of the World Cup after denying Salem Al-Dawsari in Poland's 2-0 victory over Saudi Arabia on Saturday.
