The same mystic pig that predicted the triumph of of President Donald trump at the polls has this time predicted that Nigeria will get to the semi-finals of the World Cup.
Going by owner, Juliette Stevens, the pig has never predicted any sports event wrongly. While explaining the pig’s mystic abilities, Juliette said “Marcus is the seventh child of a seventh child and apparently they’re gifted with special powers so maybe that’s where it comes from.
“A few years ago I was invited on a radio show because of Paul the octopus predicting results and they wanted to see if I had any animals that had the ability.
“I hadn’t tried the seventh child theory out so thought I’d give it a go.”
If Mystic Marcus’ predictions are anything to go by, Belgium, Argentina, Nigeria and Uruguay are expected to make it to the semi-finals.
