Germany vs Uruguay Paul "octopus oracle" predicts Germany's victory

Two year-old octopus Paul, the so-called "octopus oracle" predicts Germany's victory in their 2010 World Cup third place soccer match against Uruguay by choosing the mussel, from a glass box decorated with the German national flag instead of a glass box with the Uruguay flag, at the Sea Life Aquarium in the western German city of Oberhausen July 9, 2010. So far Paul has correctly picked all six German World Cup results including their first-round defeat against Serbia and their semi-finals defeat against Spain.
