EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — As many soccer fans across the nation and the Borderland prepare for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final between Argentina and Spain, an animal at the El Paso Zoo will make its prediction on the winner.
Before the kickoff of the final game, Taj the Greater One-Horned Rhino will predict the winner of the World Cup Final at 11 a.m. on Saturday, July 18, at the El Paso Zoo.
Taj will pick his winner by choosing between two soccer ball-shaped piñatas representing Spain and Argentina. Both piñatas will be filled with identical treats, so that Taj can make his own prediction, according to the Zoo.
This will be Taj’s first time to guess the outcome of the World Cup…
