2010 FIFA World Cup Final – Spain Vs Netherlands

What has now made him a world famous sea creature, Paul the Octopus, has not missed any of his predictions regarding all the World Cup matches involving Germany. But today, this would be the first prediction for the mollusk, which would have no German flag in his aquarium.

Its now been nearly 2 1/2 years, the he has been acting as an oracle for the soccer lovers, and has predicted 11 out 12 matches correctly.

Today in the aquarium, which had the flags of Spain and Netherlands in it, Paul sticked to Spain and clinged his tentacles around the Spanish flag. But its not only Paul who is making his mark in the animal kingdom, with the increadeble talent, but there is a Paraket in Singapore, named Mani who is doing the work predictions too.

According to Mani he has picked Netherlands to be winners for the World Cup this year. Which makes Paul’s predictions to be questioned. But whatever it may be the game on Sunday would decide who is right anyway.

FIFA World Cup 2010 Semi Final : As Mirsolav Klose, the German captain, looks proudly at his young team under him, he is quite sure that this team has the mettle to out run the Spanish, at the game up coming on Wednesday.

This would be a very good time for the Germans to make scores even after their loss against the Spaniards in 2008 European Championship finals.

Two years ago, Klose was a part of the team which lost 1-0 against the Spaniards in the finals, but the game coming up on Wednesday would be featuring a very different team, with young players, and this time the Germans have the edge, states Klose.

Boasting about his young team, Klose said, that the young generation in the team are playing a very vital part in improving the quality of their game, which also due to their young attitude.

Speaking about youngsters in the team, Thomas Muller who has scored four goals in the tournament along with Klose, had played a very important part in their game against Argentina.

But he wont be playing the game on Wednesday, as he earned two yellow cards during that game.

Klose admitted that Spain is still the supreme team of Europe, but if spoke in terms of quality in the game, the Germans are way ahead of them. He said that they might have kicked out their old foes, England and Argentina, out of the series with a combined score of 8-1, but the Spanish are the best opponents they have met in the tournament.
