England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 2 - Norway 🇳🇴 1

entry picture

It's war in Miami the vikings have arrived
A battle will rage they ain't gonna survive
England's lions will roar and thrive 

The date on the wall is 11th July
A knockout game reach for the sky
At the hard rock stadium time 10 pm
England's journey lets go round again 
World cup quarter final I can forsee
England will beat Norway I smell victory

In the humid heat pushing 35 degree
Blow your whistle game on referee
England v Norway let the battle begin 
Game on and may the best team win

England start at a brisk pace and control
Playing with panache let's roll
Drop their guard 36 minutes Schjelderup 
goal
One nil Norway this is serious drama
Minute forty seven Bellingham scores 
Instant karma
Half time the game is all square
Time to come out fighting so there

After the break Norway threat 
Heggem goal ruled out for Haaland's foul 
you bet
They hit the crossbar with a blast
England turn the tables at last
The clock runs down minutes tick away
Extra time you gotta have faith pray

The battle rages on with grit
Come on England are you up for it
Ninety three minutes Bellingham goal 
Two one England rock and roll
Full time and whistle does blow
A victory so sweet don't you know

England's lions scream and roar
The defeated vikings shown the door

It's a long way back to oslo
Goodbye vikings row row row
Semi final for England on song
Next stop Atlanta Argentina bring it on
bring it on

Like Halley's Comet, you only see it once unless you live to a grand old age. 1966 again?? They couldn't could they??

What did the Vikings ever do for us?
They gave me some dodgy DNA leading to knackered fingers!
