Big Bets Report: Mexico Loss To England Costs Bettor $1 Million

A Vegas high-roller put $1 million on Mexico to advance and wound up losing it when England won 3-2 — a wild match featuring Jude Bellingham’s rapid two-goal burst and a red card.
Late-game drama has been creating big swings — Norway shocked Brazil 2-1 despite a late Neymar penalty, and a Caesars bettor turned $49,052.27 on Over 2.5 into $81,753.78; small punts on Bellingham’s brace would’ve paid nicely too.
Plenty of weird longshots and huge prediction-market trades are in play: an 83-cent parlay from 2022 could now be $2,433, while traders have been making (and losing) seven-figure bets like $1.858M on “Mexico not to win.”
