Here we are again in the midst of a football competition with all the hype and expectation that goes alongside this type of event. I am fortunate enough to remember the 1966 World Cup in England, which we won. We're expected to repeat that feat once again this year which is nothing new. In fact, since 1966, there has been a biannual World Cup/Euros and I can't remember a time when success wasn't expected.
Euros 2024
On Germanic fields, the warriors tread,
with hopes and dreams, they charge
ahead.
the whistle blows, the crowd roars
loud,
each pass and shot, a journey
proud.
The ball dances between the feet,
of players swift, with hearts that
beat.
for glory's call, they chase and
strive,
within their souls, the game's
alive.
In unity, they stand as one,
from minute zero till ninety some.
through trials faced and battles
won,
their will to win can't be undone.
So the tournament has begun,
best teams rise a trophy to be won.
But in this game of joy and pain,
the love for football shall remain.
