    I didn't realise that it had accurately predicted the Spain defeat... Their power is more awesome that I ever imagined, they can see the future.

    Larissa Riquelme Will Run Nude As 'Present' To Players

    Larissa Riquelme, the captivating lingerie model who enchanted soccer fans around the world with her enthusiastic support of the Paraguayan World Cup team, saw her pledge to run nude through the streets of Paraguay end in heartbreak when Spain defeated her favorite team in the quarterfinals last weekend.

    The beautiful Paraguayan has good news for her eager fans who were disappointed by the loss. Riquelme says she will run naked through Asuncion, even though Paraguay did not win the World Cup. The curvy model says her nude run "will be a present to all of the players, and for all the people in Paraguay to enjoy."

    Spain haven't been happy with their 1-0s though, it's not like they just pack the defence and pass it around the back as soon as they score. Chances are still created they just havn't been clinical enough to finish them, if Pedro and Torres had passed when Spain were two on one at the back it would have been 3-0 against Germany, they just kept overplaying it.

    Death by Sushi Bar eh? The World Cup sure brings out the passionate amongst us. Come on this cephalopod oracle is a gold mine. I wonder if he picks other sports like the ponies or college basketball...

    Not only he got the loss against spain right, but also the one against Serbia. =O

    And I agree, Spain's games have been some of the most boring games in the world cup. But oh well, the last cup both France and Italy practically just defended themselves.
