Warm Bologna night
Right foot volley David Platt
No penalties
Word reached me this week of the High IQ Haiku World Cup Project. I’ve never tried writing haiku before but this idea appealed.
They’re inviting haiku relating to the forthcoming World Cup, or to World Cups past. So I went with Italia 90, the first World Cup I properly remember. Obviously this was the World Cup that first gave England its penalties complex but I thought it’d be a bit obvious to go for the semi-final heartache-type angle. It is, however, about another specific moment from that tournament.
If you can remember the opposition team and the name of the assisting player then I award you an imaginary £5. Well done!
