David Beckham and Sweden’s top scorer, Zlatan Ibrahimovic entered into a bet ahead of the World Cup quarter final match between England and the Scandinavian country.

In an Instagram exchange, Ibrahimovic offered to buy the former England captain dinner ‘anywhere in the world’ if England won.

If Sweden won however, Ibrahimovic demanded Beckham treat him to a piece of furniture of his choosing from the country’s retailer, Ikea.

Beckham accepted the bet with a few conditions of his own: ‘When’ England win, Ibrahimovic must attend an England game at Wembley ‘wearing an England shirt and enjoying fish & chip at half time’.

The stakes are high: who will come out victorious?
