Memory of Portugal 2004

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Memories left in our head
We were defeated but not yet dead
Lost by penalties, should we sad?

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Some games create anxieties
Defeats mean more than cruelties
When you missed two penalties

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 We had lesson from set piece
Yes, I’m talking about Greece
Who scored all headers in ease

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 France played with all their pride
But fate has changed, who can decide?
Then unto Greece they step aside

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Nedved injured, means “Czech mate”
As Greece showed them the exit gate
With a silver goal so late

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 An intruder with Barca banner
Come to Figo with crude manner
He ran for goal of himself sooner

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Eusebio dreams soon highly flied
The host lost twice, Ronaldo cried
All efforts failed as they’ve tried

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 The EURO games finally done
A new season will start to run
Will we ever find the same fun?
