A TIKTOK user claiming to be a time traveller has shared a bizarre clip purportedly showing the final of this winter’s World Cup, including the teams and score.
TikTok user @worldcuptimetraveller has been sharing television footage of full-time scenes of matches which they claim to have taken in the future.
Back in 2021 the mysterious poster, formerly known as @nsh.official, appeared to correctly predict the final score in the delayed Euro 2020 tournament.
They shared a clip showing Italy winning the final 2-1, which came true just weeks later.
Now, the same user has sensationally claimed that they know who will be in the final of this year’s World Cup, and what the score will be.
Sharing footage which they claimed was taken three weeks in the future at the World Cup final, they claimed that Brazil will beat France 2-1.
The clip, shared with their 53k followers, shows Brazilian players and fans celebrating, while a dejected Olivier Giroud bows his head.
On the screen is the scoreline Brazil 2 – France 1, with the official-looking World Cup screen graphics.
The screen even shows the apparent goalscorers in the World Cup final, leaving the self-proclaimed time traveller with very little wiggle room.
According to the clip, the Brazil scorers will be Marquinhos and Richarlison, although the French goalscorer’s name isn’t possible to work out.
In the short video, which has garnered almost 2million likes, the TikTok user said: “Brazil just beat France at the 2022 World Cup final. I’m a time traveller.”
The user added in the caption that they were “helping you out like last year” in reference to a video they made for the Euro 2020 final.
Many were impressed with the “time traveller’s” editing skills, even if they were more doubtful about their claims.
“Why does it look so… real,” one user said.
“Imagine if he gets it right again,” another added.
But others were quick to point out that the clip of Brazilian fans celebrating was actually taken from Richarlison’s goal in their opening World Cup match against Serbia.
While another pointed out that Giroud’s France kit appears to have only one star above the badge, meaning that it must be from before the 2018 World Cup final, where France won the competition for the second time.
The TikTok user, as well as claiming to have seen the final result coming also shared a clip of England thrashing Ukraine 4-0 in the quarter-final before the match even kicked off.
However, one TikTok user pointed out that the seemingly unnerving accuracy of the time traveller’s predictions isn’t all it seems.
Although they do seem to have got some scores correct, they have also reportedly deleted a number of predictions that didn’t come true.
