Spain to win World Cup?

Using Graph Theory, some mathematicians have predicted that Spain will beat the Netherlands in Sunday's World Cup final. Better yet, Paul the German octopus who has an incredible 80% accuracy rate has also predicted a Spanish win. Apparently, some Germans were so angry that Paul predicted their loss that they not only insulted him and threatened his life but they also insulted his mother.

Mathematics may be based on a more solid method but there's no doubt about who's cooler. And cuter.
