México faces Brazil tomorrow as the FIFA 2014 World Cup soccer tournament continues! There has been one shining star known as Cabeção, the psychic turtle, who has been predicting the winners of each match. This afternoon he was put to the test again and asked who would win tomorrow's game and "El Tri" fans should be excited as the tortoise has given them the win. The game that will be played at the Castelão stadium in Fortaleza would shock the host country as they are the clear favorite to win the cup. This game will mark some sort of a rematch after the Aztec country won gold over Brazil at the 2012 London Olympics. WATCH the video of Cabeção picking the winner down below!
The team coached by Miguel "El Piojo" Herrera will play their second match on Tuesday, June 17 starting at 3 p.m. ET/12 noon PT. Their first game against Cameroon was a controversial as the referees disallowed three goals from the Mexican team. In the end, Oribe Peralta scored the one and only goal in the encounter giving México three points for winning the match. Brazil also had a succesful debut, besting Croatia with a 3 to 1 win. Who is your favorite team to win?
In Case You Missed It: Lionel Messi is one of the biggest soccer players in the world and made his debut during the 2014 World Cup this weekend. As the 26-year-old striker made his way through a tunnel to shake officials' hands a child approaches the star, extends his hand but is completely shunned. Imagine the feelings of this kid, a fan of the player that watches his games on tv every weekend and here was his moment to meet his idol, but got ignored. As it is Messi is heavily criticized for being arrogant, but to be fair it does look like he waves at someone before getting the officials. Some sites have cited that it might be that the player known as "La Pulga" ("The Flea") didn't see him because of the height difference, but Messi is already relatively short. Watch the video here!
