Soccer Blues

Germany came out in their usual black and white
as the fans screamed with delight
 Italia   came in white and blue
ready to play as the whistle blew
 the Germans were favored to win the game
but went down one, from a header it came
Losing now and put on the spot
but went down again from a laser like shot
they scored one later it was true
but in the end the black and white's were blue

Too bad for the German team. I don't follow European soccer too closely.
