TRIBUTE to STANTHE GREATEST
Cup-winner Stan
Still playing on at thirty-eight,

With shimmy,side-step and dazzle

An aging hero with twinkling skills,
A pro sans modern day frills.

It is what it seems -
Another boy's dreams
Of Ronaldo fame.
His shirt is a shame,
His goal is the same -
True love for the game.
