Drogs of war - Ivory Coast 0-0 Portugal

Sven’s Ivories given a boost
Drogba relighting the fire
Way too much expectation
Chelsea ace failed to inspire

Typical attacking duo
Dread of losing swayed strong
Ronaldo’s goal draught so tragic
I broke into a melodic folk song

Elimination weighed deep with both
Ronaldo sought the bee sting
Port Elizabeth became West Africa
To welcome Drogba the Ivory king

Armcast Didier on the bench
When Sven picked from his cream
Injured Toure stemmed the attack
Of Carlos Queiroz’s team

Kalou flitted, Zokora held
Carvalho gave his muscles a flex
One of both teams will go
Brazil both still to face next

Number 7
