Spain to win World Cup, says Paul the octopus
Octopus oracle Paul today predicted Spain will beat Holland to win the World Cup.
Paul’s pick was carried live on TV stations around Europe. The world-famous octopus could be seen sitting on a tank marked with a Spanish flag for only a few minutes before grabbing out a mussel and devouring it, while completely ignoring the Dutch tank – indicating a Spanish victory in Sunday’s final match in the World Cup.
