Our Lisbon Lions
Our Lisbon Lions – resplendent, preened,
emerged, emboldened for the fray;
decked out in most distinctive garb:
alternate hoops of white and green.
The mission clear - confront the foe;
put anti-football to the sword;
by total, joyous running free,
lay sterile Catenaccio low.
Our Lisbon Lions, so bold, so brash,
absorbed a cruel early blow;
unleashed a football tsunami -
Herrera’s prima donnas smashed.
The “Lions Lost” will ever be
in hearts and minds embedded deep.
Our Lisbon Lions we hail today
... immortalised eternally.
