The Commentator by Maddie

Good afternoon and welcome.

This is Jack Burner your commentator

Welcoming you to this game

Between Russia 

and Portugal,  

     

Which they will be kicking off this afternoon.

At 23 Bluebell Lane

And the pitch has recently been trimmed

As Danny Martin prepares

To kick off for Russia;

And this crowd is ready for excitement

As Danny, the Russian captain, puts Russia on the attack.

Straight away it’s Robbie

With a smooth pass to Jeremy,

Jeremy back to Robbie,

Robbie in possession now

Skilfully passing the filthy scooter

And a neat flick inside the dog there,

What a brilliant player Robbie is

And is still only eight years old!

Robbie to Ben,

Ben to Robbie,

Robbie is through…

No, he’s been tackled by the hosepipe;

But, he’s won the ball back very quickly

And he’s advancing on the Dutch

Keeper now,

It needs to be a goal,

He comes of his line

But Robbie chips him in brilliantly.

It’s a goal!

It’s gone in Mr Fletcher’s next door,

And Robbie’s going round annoyed

To ask for his precious ball back….

The crowd is waiting silent now.

If he can’t get the ball back,

We are done for!

This could be the end.

The doors opening

And yes, it’s Mr Fletcher,

He’s saying that Robbie can go and fetch it.

But wait, he’s not in the back garden!

Look, there is Mr Fletcher – looking very suspicious......

Still no Robbie! .....
