Africa-Press<\/a> – Zimbabwe<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>A \u201cpsychic\u201d elephant from a zoo in Hamburg, Germany, has predicted that the country\u2019s football team, Die Mannschaft, will beat England in their Euro 2020 last-16 clash on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The 42-year-old elephant named, Yashoda, correctly predicted that Germany would lose their tournament opener to France, beat Portugal and then draw against Hungary in the group stage.<\/p>\n

She pulled the German flag rather than the English one out of a wicker basket at Hagenbeck Zoo to the delight of many German fans.<\/p>\n

For #GER v #HUN, the footballing heavyweight has predicted Germany to draw against Hungary.<\/p>\n
