"Champions of Europe and now champions of the world, Spain captured football's Holy Grail for the first time with a 1-0 victory over the Netherlands thanks to Andres Iniesta's 116th-minute strike at Soccer City."

"The solitary goal came with penalties looming as substitute Cesc Fabregas played in Iniesta and the little midfielder drove emphatically across Maarten Stekelenburg and into the far corner. With this victory – their fourth successive single-goal win in South Africa – Spain became the eighth name on the FIFA World Cup™ Trophy and also the first European team to have triumphed on a different continent. For the Netherlands, who lost defender John Heitinga to a red card in extra time, there is only the heartache of another tale of what might have been after they completed a hat-trick of Final losses."

"Fernando Torres replaced Villa midway through the extra period and Spain gained a man advantage four minutes later with Heitinga's dismissal for pulling back Iniesta on the edge of the box, the offence earning him a second yellow. Iniesta would not be denied, however, and his fine late strike put Spain into the history books and left a Dutch dream shattered."

Paul The Octopus (Spain) vs Mani The Parakeet (Netherlands)

Rasa-rasanyer semua dah baca atau tengok berita malam tadi (Jumaat 10-07-2010) kan? hahahaa..lagi berita pasal Paul Si Kurita..tapi kali ni Paul dah ada pesaing...Mani Si Nuri... ^_^
Kenapa aku letak tajuk "Paul The Octopus (Spain) vs Mani The Parakeet (Netherlands)" sebab saingan Paul lawan Mani lebih menarik kot...hahahahaa..

Paul telah membuat ramalan terakhirnya untuk edisi Piala Dunia 2010 kali ini dengan memilih Sepanyol yang menjuarai Piala Dunia 2010 kali ini.

"By KIRSTEN GRIESHABER (AP) :
BERLIN — Eyes around the world were on Germany's octopus oracle Paul on Friday as he made his biggest prediction yet in the World Cup: Spain will beat the Netherlands in the final.Paul's prescient picks in the World Cup — he has yet to predict a match wrong — have propelled him to international fame from obscurity in an aquarium in the western city of Oberhausen.TV stations in Germany, Great Britain, Taiwan and elsewhere broadcast live pictures, complete with breathless commentary, of his final decision.Millions watched as the eight-legged oracle descended upon on a tank marked with a Spanish flag, sitting for only a few minutes before grabbing a mussel and devouring it, while completely ignoring the Dutch tank — indicating a Spanish victory in Sunday's final match in Sunday's final.(more)"

Tapi..lain pula bagi si peramal baru yang juga pesaing Paul, Mani Si Nuri yang berasal dari Singapura. Mani dikatakan telah membuat ramalan yang tepat untuk 4 perlawanan suku akhir dan kemenangan Sepanyol pada perlawanan separuh akhir oleh pemiliknya M. Muniyappan (seorang tukang tilik).Untuk perlawanan akhir nanti..Mani telah memilih kad yang tertera bendera Belanda (yang telah diterbalikkan) dan ini sekaligus bertentangan dengan ramalan Paul.

"Mani, a 13-year-old parakeet, picks up a card with the flag of the Netherlands in Singapore's Little India neighborhood, Friday July 9, 2010. Mani's owner, fortune-teller M. Muniyappan, claims the bird accurately predicted the winner of the tournament's four quarterfinal games and Spain's victory in its semifinal match.(others news about Mani)"

Jadi persaingan Piala Dunia 2010 kali ini bukan sahaja antara Sepanyol dan Belanda...tetapi juga antara Paul dan Mani, pastinya sesuatu yang menarik!! hahahahaaa...

Apa yang pasti..perlawanan akhir nanti bukan kedua-dua binatang ini yang berhak untuk menentukannya tetapi pemain-pemain Sepanyol dan Belanda yang akan menentukannya...

Sepanyol atau Belanda...siapa JUARA?
