Octopus Paul opens a box decorated with a Spanish flag and a shell inside at the Sea Life aquarium in Oberhausen, western Germany. Paul's task is to decide in favour of one of the shells hidden in boxes with the flags of the Netherlands (L)and Spain to act thus as oracle for the upcoming final match of the FIFA Football World Cup between the two countries on July 11, 2010.Paul, the 'psychic' octopus, who had predicted well the result of six German matches earlier in the tournament, predicted Spain will win the football World Cup for the first time in their history.
A Singapore parakeet which correctly predicted all four winners in the World Cup quarter-finals has picked the Netherlands to trump Spain for the championship, local media said Friday.The bird, named Mani, has rapidly gained cult status among gambling-mad soccer fans who have been flocking to its owner's shop in Singapore's Little India district in the hope of winning big.Local media reports said Mani used its beak to pick a card bearing the flag of the Netherlands over one with Spain's national colours.
Now that's a clash of prediction Paul's SPAIN vs Mani NETHERLANDS.. we will declare champion of prediction on Sunday.
