The deafening sound of applause,
the roaring chants in unison.
The audience's yell on every kick,
rejoice heard on every goal made.
What a joy to see the green field,
seeing people in distinctive garb.
Running, outdoing each other,
in a sport that million people loved.
Strength and stamina the players have,
there is also some drama behind.
The endurance and the will they show,
they strive to make their country proud.
Soccer is the name of the game,
foot and legs is the players arm.
In every move people are charmed,
play to win is what they aim.
Every team wants to be in the World Cup,
it gives their country the prestige and pride.
To the players, it gives them worth,
displaying their talent to the whole world.
