Achilles the cat, the animal oracle for the 2018 World Cup, rightly predicted that Nigeria would beat Argentina in their final Group D match.
The cat was presented with a choice of two bowls of food with Argentinian and Nigerian flags placed next to them, and Achilles preferred the latter one.
Earlier, the congenitally deaf snow-white cat correctly predicted Russia’s wins over Saudi Arabia and Egypt, Iran’s victory over Morocco and Brazil’s defeat of Costa Rica.
The Group D game between two-time former champions Argentina and Nigeria was held at the St. Petersburg Stadium.
Argentina go into the match knowing only a victory could see them through to the round of 16.
