The successors of the Octopus Paul: a couple of bears already hit their first forecast

Every day, Bein Sports makes a small clip with the “Suhail and Thuraia Predictions”housed in the Panda House Park of Al Khor Citywhere one of the two pandas enters the cave towards a transparent wall where they must touch one of the flags of the teams involved in the day’s match.

On the eve, the panda on duty leaned over Ecuador as the winner of the opening duel of the World Cup 2022 against Qatarfirst host to lose in the first match of the tournament.

In the second turn, the panda chose England for their duel against Iran in the opening of the B Groupwhose first date was completed with the match between United States and Wales.

Also in England, the BBC chose to skip the 30-minute opening ceremony, as did the private broadcaster ITV, a decision that Al Jazeera, on its English channel, described as “contempt.”

“The BBC does not broadcast the Qatar 2022 ceremony after having broadcast the Beijing 2022 Games.
