First of all, it is highly probably that God exists. On a scale of 1 to 7, with 1 meaning God exists and 7 meaning God does not exist—all the existing evidence point to 6, it is highly probable there is God.
Secondly, even if it so happens that God exists or you believe HE does exist, it will be absurd, irrational and utterly displaced of priority to think that God will be interested in 22 men chasing a round object around a pitch in the face of pressing needs such as, countless children dying in Iraq, in Somalia, in Syria and other parts of the world.
All the same, a Ghanaian white gown wearing prophet has come to say, Ghana will beat Portugal tonight—and if it happens, people will say the prophet was right and God exists. However, if it does not happen, same people will say, the prophet is false—this does not mean God does not exist. You can never win with believers on any indicator (after all, it is about faith—believing without evidence)…
Anyway, watch the video below and since the prophesy is favourable to what I want to happen, I will also shout AMEN! Pure nonsense though…

I am a Christian and i know for sure that God exist because i have experienced Him personally. But is God interested in football and games for that matter, the answer is no. The simple reason is that, football is a form gambling where teams compete for price money. God never approves of gambling. Can a Pastor pray to God for favourable results for a particular team in a competition? the answer is no because the God i know is not discriminatory and does not approve of gambling as well. Do i believe in prophecy? yes i believe in prophecy. God can reveal an event in the future to His servants but i don’t believe in football prophecy because God is not interested in football. The team that has prepared well and hungry for victory on the day usually wins the day, all things being equal (good officiating, good tactics etc) and not the team which can pray the loudest. Mind you Israel is not at the world cup lol. As you said, we are all hoping for a win for Black stars.
The man is just doing some probability sampling. In fact, he isn’t far from those who bet, because they all can predict and get their predictions right at times.
God is not interested in football, beauty pageant, and any form of gambling. These pastors are the reason why people insults the genuine prophets. If you’ve seen something just keep it to your self and say God will show Ghana mercy or grace. All these false predictions are disturbing the unbelievers. God do exist i’ve experienced him in so many ways. He’s the God that answers by fire. I know he loves his children dearly and not the matter of football. Looking at his appearance describe a sunsum sore sofo to me. God come down and strike everyone who’s abusing your name in vain.
