but according to Wiki and my coworker, he did pick Germany over Spain incorrectly in 2008. So this colour theory isn't 100% correct.

The 2008 UEFA European Football Championship
Paul, known as "Das Krakenorakel", first predicted the outcome of a football match during UEFA Euro 2008.[10] According to his keepers, 5 out of 6 of his choices were correct;[2] he incorrectly chose Germany as the winner of the final match, against Spain.
btw his name "Paul" prononce closer as "Pou-l" in German. |
