Paul the Octopus

Belgium 2 - Algeria 1; Brazil 0 - Mexico 0; Russia 1 - Korea 1. An inspired Mexican goalkeeper... However, the story of the day was that Google resuscitated Paul the Octopus as a Google doodle.

Paul the Octopus: Am I Feeling Lucky?
Of course, an octopus is no match for a macaco. While Paul was still submerged in doubts, scratching his head, and trying to figure out the Brazil-Mexico game, Cabeça de Macaco had correctly predicted the tie and was climbing up the rankings table.

Too bad Cabeça de Macaco missed the other two games and ended up 131th. Meanwhile, Serginho Matos continues at 1st place, with exactly 100 points. Renata Maria Gasparini moved up to 2nd and Julián to 3rd. The complete standings are here.
