Uri Geller has claimed credit for England's advance to the World Cup quarter-finals, asserting that he used a supernatural 'alien' crystal skull to break a curse on the team. The 79-year-old psychic says his mystical intervention neutralised any negative forces affecting the Three Lions.
England's journey included a dramatic round of 32 match against DR Congo, where Harry Kane scored a double to secure victory after trailing deep into the second half. They then defeated co-hosts Mexico 3-2 in a chaotic match at the Azteca Stadium, despite being reduced to ten men.
Alien Relic from Mayan Pyramid
In a Facebook post before the Mexico game, Geller revealed: 'This relic, which could even be of alien origin, was discovered telepathically by me many years ago hidden deep inside a Mayan pyramid. I plan to harness its supernatural energies to see England through to the quarter-finals.' He added, 'Look, I am no miracle worker nor a prophet, but I will do my best to achieve my goal! I definitely lifted the curse.'
Previous Intervention Against Witch Doctor
This is not the first time Geller has intervened for England. Previously, he countered a hex allegedly placed on captain Harry Kane by Ghanaian witch doctor Nana Kwaku Bonsam. Geller said: 'After the witch doctor saga, I am constantly helping England win. I was concerned that Harry might go onto the pitch with fear in him, so I decided to counter the witch doctor's curse. I have never used my mental powers to hurt, curse or hex anyone. When I try to help a team or individual, I focus only on boosting what is already inside them—their talent, courage, confidence, instinct, and strength.'
Psychic Support for the Squad
Geller claims he constantly beams 'positive energy and optimistic vibrations' into the brains of Thomas Tuchel's squad, acting as a cosmic shield. He believes his powers, combined with national hope, could help England replicate the 1966 World Cup win. He keeps a 1966 World Cup-winning shirt and a signed orange football in his museum as a physical anchor for his psychic energy. 'I believe that England can gather an invincible power together with the fans and go on to win. But at the end of the day, I am only a human being with strong psychic powers,' he said.
