The photograph above shows Octopus Paul sucking Spanish flag to predict their victory.
Octopus Paul predicted all German matches with 100% accuracy, including their defeat at the Quater Finals.
Spanish government says it was ready to pay millions of Dollars to buy the Octopus from the Gernan government to which it belongs. But, it appears the German government might not agree as plans are on the way to marry a female Octopus for Paul.
Analysts say the face of gambling in Europe and America will change with the coming of Octopus Paul as stakers would no doubt go to any length to consult Octopus Paul before making any bet.
While irate German football enthusiasts want the Octopus killed for predicting against them in the quarter finals, German government are optimistic that Octopus Paul will drive the tourism industry to another level.
So much for an Octopus!
No brother, Germany did not lose in the quarter-finals. At that stage, they humiliated favourites Argentina 4-0. Germany were defeated twice in South Africa 2010 - in their second group game against Serbia and in the semi-finals encounter vs Spain. Both matches ended 0-1 against the Germans. Octopus Paul rightly predicted all German fixtures and the final between The Netherlands and Spain.
