England coast th-roo to last eight

England 1-0 Ukraine

Hosts stand in the way of the knockout
Three lions intending to plunder
Roy hoping to break the drought
With the return of the boy wonder

Playing at the Donbass Arena
Ukraine have never won in four
Roo heads the easiest of his career
Gerrard smashing one past the back door

One nil win was my pre match threat
More deafening shouts for goal line TV
Terry clearing from inside the net
It's showtime against the Azzurri
