Paul the psychic octopus is proven right again as Spain stunned Germany 1 – 0 in the World Cup semi final. A strong header from Carlos Puyol, which was the solitary goal in a rather subdued game shunned the favorite from entering the final. Unlike theirs previous matches games where they trashed England 4 – 1, then Argentina 4 – 0, the Germans' performance was below par.
A good job done for Spain to effectively shut the attacks of the Germans, but a defensive play by both sides had resulted in a rather boring match, an anti climax for a thus far pretty exciting World Cup matches which saw most of matches conceded many goals and also unpredictabilities such as the match between Uruguay and Ghana.
Well done, Paul, a small brain of yours is more farsighted that more of the sport experts and also football pundits around the world. Having seen how German trashed England and Argentina, many could have predicted that it would be a walk in the park for Germany especially seeing Spain were not so convincing in theirs earlier matches.
