We Came, We Scored, We Conquered

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Euro match was kicked off
I had high hopes that we
Could tame Ukraine just like the same
As we did Germany
Our Harry didn't tarry
A goal soon from the start
Showed returning prowess
Gave his teammates heart
Through first half we kept steady
In second we caught fire
Doubling up the scoreline
With header from Maguire
A third from Kane a classic
A fourth from Henderson
And with another clean sheet
The game was truly won
So now it's on to Wembley
From this success in Rome
And could it be that this time
Football is coming home?
