Paul just got his 6th right prediction, that's a 1.56% chance. 

If he get the final result right, that's 7 right predictions in a row, that's a 0,78% chance of happening. That octopus is a math wiz


For the sake of football I hope he is wrong tomorrow.

I don't want to know how a game ends before it even started >.>

Me too, and hopefully if Netherlands wins, this will put an end to the ridiculous amount of copycats appearing lately, like that parakeet in Philippines.

Ah, I'm glad this wonderful German team at least made it to #3 at this WC. 
Good game from both sides, the URU team showed why they get so far (but their keeper didn't have his best day).

Paul can retire on Monday from World Cup predictions. I learned yesterday that he's an oldie (for an octopus) and that he most probably won't be alive anymore already when EURO 2012 takes place.

BTW: The Spanish village of Carballino wants to hire Paul for football predictions and offered 30.000€ for him.

"We don't want to eat Paul," said Manuel Pazo, who runs a fishing business in the village.

Wait.. people actually watch the 3rd place match? And about Paul... he was right about every German match but he will be wrong tommorow! :)


They are usually pretty exciting, this one didn't disappoint either.

There was nothing to lose and everything to gain and both teams just went for it.

This final might not be as good as this game was.

4 players with 5 goals so far. Only Sneijder and Villa can score some more tomorrow

I hope Dirk Kuyt can score 4 goals

I don't really think Holland will win so betting Kuyt scoring 4 goals is unlikely

That should have been a red card. This game has been quite dirty.



okr on 11 July 2010

This (41') should've been a yellow card for Snejider.

Holland is pathetic. All defense and playing extremely dirty.

What the hell are they doing? Why are they so afraid. Just play damit!
