1. Blind football at the London 2012 Paralympics

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Brazil 4-0 Turkey

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Went to watch the jingle bell ball
Captivated in awe all day long
Knockout tackles saw billboards fall
Think Pirlo paired with De Jong

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Double Golds sink Turkey without trace
It’s blind football at the Riverbank Arena
Golden boy Jefinho smashes a brace
With the poise of a skilled ballerina

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 When Ricardinho jinked and wowed 
Pin drop hush and a silent wall
Not your raucous football crowd
See Jefinho  hit the hundredth goal
 
Number 7
