World Cup draw conspiracy? Group F appears as predicted and claims that the tournament winner is already decided

Conspiracy theories surrounding World Cup draws are hardly a new phenomenon, with one Twitter account proven right after speculating on the draw and also suggesting the World Cup winner is already decided.

On Thursday morning, 24 hours before the draw was made, the Brasil 2014 Fraude account said that it lamented the fact that “a pure sport can be stained by an organisation with economic interests” and said it would publish Argentina’s group for the tournament, which it got bang on.

Not only that, the Twitter account also claimed to know the country that would be moved from Pot 4 to Pot 2, which they got right also – Italy. “We don’t have the intention to take away the emotion and euphoria from the World Cup; however, if this corrupt organisation continues we will be obliged to announce the competition’s winner, which has already been decided by Blatter and company in Switzerland,” it went on to say. Of course it is possible that the account may have simply published all of Argentina’s group possibilities, and simply deleted the wrong ones, which would have gone unnoticed, but it will also fuel the fires of conspiracy theorists. They didn't say who exactly would win the World Cup - we're leaning more towards the Samba Boys rather than Honduras - so we may have to wait until next July to find out.
