Qatar 2022: Poetry by Peter Drury Recalls Morocco's Historic Victory Over Portugal

 

Obviously, Peter Drury has taken over as the voice of English football commentary. When Morocco defeated Portugal to become the first nation from the continent to get to the semifinals of a FIFA World Cup, he was at his most poetic.

Peter Drury is currently just displaying when he stands in front of the microphone. The prominent English analyst waxed poetic in his description of Morocco's triumph over Portugal, establishing the Atlas Lions as the first country from Africa to advance to the FIFA World Cup semifinals.

"IT IS A MOROCCAN MARVEL! THE ATLAS LIONS ARE NOW JUST ONE MORE PROWLING STEP FROM THE WORLD CUP FINAL ITSELF!  

"THE ARAB WORLD UNITES! THE AFRICAN CONTINENT BELIEVES! ITS STANDARD BEARER CONTINUES TO CONJURE WITH THE BARELY BELIEVABLE!

"FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD CUP THERE WILL BE AN AFRICAN NATION IN THE SEMIFINALS! AND PORTUGAL ARE OUT, AND CRISTIANO RONALDO IS OUT!"
