Cat To Predict World Cup Winners At Russia 2018

Animals purported to have psychic powers have become a tradition at soccer's showpiece events. Now a cat has been put forward to predict the winners and losers at the tournament that kicks off Russia.

Achilles, the supposed psychic cat, will turn his talents to the beautiful game's most prestigious event: the World
Cup , after he predicted results during the last year's Confederations Cup. The white feline, who lives in St. Petersburg's Hermitage museum, will make his predictions by choosing between two bowls of food, each bearing a team flag.
With the tournament scheduled to start on June 14, Achilles has been seen wearing a red soccer jersey studying the competing teams and match schedules. He is the latest in a long line of animals conscripted into the sports results prediction business. Eight years ago his World Cup predecessor Paul the Octopus became a worldwide phenomenon after accurately predicting the winners of all of Germany's matches at the 2010 World Cup.
Paul, who has since passed away, communicated his insights by choosing between two glass boxes of mussels — one with the German flag and the other bearing that of the opposing team. The case he opened first was deemed to be his predicted winner.

GUYS, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

@Emmy; It's quite unusual for a young lady to have cat as a pet in Nigeria. Imagine her, cuddling the cat. @Davood: I won't even near the Iya Ibadan house. I will take off immediately . 😂
