On July 19, the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford hosted the American tournament final. The 2022 final attracted around 1.5 billion viewers worldwide, and this year’s showdown was expected to draw an even bigger global audience.
Conor McGregor, an ambassador for the global betting brand 1xBet, has added another layer of intrigue to the year’s biggest sporting event by placing a $100,000 bet on Argentina to win 3-2.
With nearly 50 million Instagram followers, Conor McGregor’s prediction engages people on social media who do not usually stay up to date with football action, so his prediction will help partners expand their target audience.
McGregor has backed Argentina to win 3-2 with a $100,000 wager, which would return $3.6 million if successful. While few players place bets of that size, high-odds markets remain popular among bettors looking to make bold predictions during major sporting events.
The prediction has quickly become one of the tournament’s biggest talking points. This case clearly demonstrates that ambassadors’ global influence creates real benefits for the brand and its partners, rather than just abstract value.
Through 1xPartners, affiliates can take advantage of this momentum with promotional tools designed to convert tournament engagement into long-term revenue.
