1376 - World Cup in motion

The World Cup in South Africa’s begun
It’s a four-yearly football tournament
In eight years’ time it could be in England
But for now it’s on the ‘dark continent’
For the first time ever. The first day went
Smoothly: two drawn games in the host team’s group
South Africa and Mexico had spent
Ninety minutes and then could only droop
At the final whistle, completely pooped
Later, France and Uruguay both came on
And bored us with nil-nil. One man was sent
Off: Wayne Rooney, take note! But there’s no hope
For England this time, is there? It’s no fun
Supporting them; it’s closer to torment
