Professional athletes are obviously competitive. Now imagine being a former international star watching your country successfully advance in the Russia 2018 World Cup.
You’re going to be dying to get in on the action. And what better to participate in a game you can’t play in by making a friendly wager? With that in mind, it makes perfect sense Zlatan Ibrahimovic and David Beckham would place a silly bet on tomorrow’s England-Sweden quarterfinal matchup.
Long story short: If Sweden wins, the former LA Galaxy legend buys Ibra furniture. If England wins, Zlatan travels to England and buy Becks dinner on the house.
