Bleus given Blues by Greens - France 0-2 Mexico

Tonight was all about the Aztecs
Bravely entering Domenech’s lair
Polokwane providing much zest
Crisp, clean, biting fresh air

Madam is this some joke?
Blankets for the OAP French?
I thought a rather comical sight
Cute old folk huddled on the bench

Professeur Wenger aghast
Ill-fated Carlos Vela
Had Le Bleus back four indulged
In Monsieur Raymond’s wine cellar?

Mexican energy paid off
Hernandez the little pig
Red Devil opening his account
And the chasm seemed very big

No Benzema, Nasri, Ben Arfa
Henry couldn't lend a helping hand
Cisse the Lord of Frodsham
More at home in the home stand

Stepped up the evergreen Blanco
Abidal to the brink of defeat
With the longest run up ever
Hop, step, jump, orbit
