He revealed to the reporter that he had a wager with Messi that VAR would never award Argentina a penalty.
He said;
We spoke before the penalty. I bet him 100 Euros that he (the referee) was not going to give it. So I have lost a bet against Messi. I don’t know if it is allowed at the World Cup. I am probably going to get banned for it. I don’t care about right now, I am not going to pay him either, he does not care about a 100 euros, come on.
He has been outstanding for Poland throughout the competition. In the round of 16 against France, Polish fans will be hoping he can maintain his current form.
