Disdain T's warm-up mind games.
Bright sun in our eyes
Fitch's visionary pass
Locates Luke in circle, who
Rounds keeper with ease.
Stone corner rebound
Falls to him on half-volley.
Backboard slight denting.
Shrewd PC option,
Todd strolls through scattered defence.
Scores gently off post.
Hockey ball's solid.
Nasal stop not advised, hence
Luke’s hours in ER.
Southgate raise tempo.
Defence bends but does not break
Post half-time orange.
Stone and Angry Man,
Raise handbags, exchange bon-mots.
2 mins to cool down
One more match is done.
Curry and pints in bellies,
Taxi for Desai.
