Soccer City turns Oranje: Holland 2-0 Denmark

It took a freak own goal
To twist the dagger
Bashing open the deadlock
Unfortunate Red Agger

Simon Poulsen tried to head
Van Persie's cross clear
Ball wrong footing Sorensen
Rebounding off Agger's rear

Oranje army's lead doubled
Eljero Elia's touch deft
The Dutch Master, He Man
Kuyt wrapped up with five left

In the Joburg sunshine.
Sat Zidane, Cruyff, Platini
No Fluency, no momentum
From Sneijder and Van Persie

For Morten Olsen's side
No grumbling over the score
Jabulani proved hard to master
Both nations failed to soar

Danes though can take heart
From that unpopular Artist dude
Now resort to creative imagery
To express their true mood

Number 7
