Paul (best name ever for an octopus – named after the many wondering hands of Paul Daniels perhaps URGH) deliberated over the match for more than an hour. He swam instantly to the German box, perhaps initially swayed by Germany’s 4-1 victory over England on Sunday. But then struck by indecision, Paul pulled back and laboriously mulled over the prospects of Argentina’s creativity and star power versus Germany’s devastating counterattack and speed. Finally, Paul wrapped his eight legs around the German box, plucked out the mussel and threw his weight behind them. Apparently this makes him psychic. Or lucky!
