The Canadian rapper's clothing brand helped design the team's tracksuit - but does his involvement come at a cost?

Don't worry guys. We weren't going to do that well at soccer anyway.

Canadian here:

tldr did a cross cultural program in highschool that led to me and my peers getting our 17 year old asses handed to us by 12 year olds.

It's fuckin futbal and us hosers ain't got any business playing it.

You’re not that bad. You’re definitely like… top five in concacaf, usually.

Ball don’t lie:

Canadians are among many around the world familiar with what can happen when Drake aligns himself with a team. It’s called the Drake Curse. When the rapper — whose global popularity is surpassed by very few figures — publicly presents himself as a fan of a team or an athlete, stark losses often follow. Take this with tongue planted firmly in cheek but there is mounting evidence to suggest the Drake Curse is real.

I'm shocked that women suffer when Drake is present.

The Drake Curse is that Drake keeps comeing back to Canada.
