Euro 2008: Switzerland V Turkey

Amidst an Amazonian blizzard
Struck home Yakin the Swiss wizard
And with the host fans full of much mirth
Hakan crushed hearts in his parents nation of birth
As the heavens opened, the sky turned black
Basle invaded by the return of the mac
Thunder bellowed as the air turned dim
Matched by the grim mood of Fatih Terim
And as he uttered a gigantic roar
Semih rose high to glance home and score
As time gathered pace Yakin failed to look the part
As Arda returned the favour and broke the hosts heart

Number 7
