All White on the night – Italy 1-1 New Zealand

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 All White’s subduing of the Azurri
I found it hard to express in rhyme
Mmombela Stadium the range
For one of the greatest shocks of all time

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Early lead with Shane Smeltz
Ageing Cannavaro at fault
Lippi simply bandaged an old wound
Ryan Nelsens’s men sprinkled salt

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Iaquinta spot kick on the half hour
Blues managed to pull one back
NZ on the brink of a fairy tale
For Lippi surely not the sack

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 20.06.10

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Number 7
