The power and magical force of football is to erase boundaries and differences, connecting humanity with an infinite and precious resonance, eagerly anticipating summer tournaments of this magnitude. A month of Euro tournaments is a season of happiness and joy, filled with the hopes and dreams of countless people.

SHOOT IT!
(Author: Truong Thieu Huyen)

Do not play ball with your hands.
That's the law of football.
Controversial penalty
That's life
That's what makes it a game.
Joy is accompanied by sadness.

The ball is round.
The boundary line is straight.
An unexpected victory at the roundabout.

The ball of our lives - the planet we await
Shoot!
Let's hope to soar!

FLY TOWARDS YOUR DREAMS
(Author: Luong Dinh Khoa)

Cycling through the gloomy afternoon rain.
The place where the yearning heart has been waiting.
The round ball rolls through dreams.
Following the path of friendship...

Leave your worries and stress outside.
Forget the constant worries and hustle.
The football field blazes with warmth in my heart.
The flame of love accompanies and connects.

Teachers on the podium are ageless.
A blue heart illuminates lives.
Fathers who live a life at sea.
Gathering the bitterness and hardship, so that my child's life may be sweet...

The round ball flies high, carrying our hopes and dreams.
Shoulder to shoulder, nurturing the budding shoots.
The rhythm of the frenzied cheers
Looking forward to those afternoons filled with a thousand radiant smiles bathed in sunlight.

Euro inspires
A dream showdown
Teachers - fathers
Indulge your passion and embrace a vibrant season.

THE MEETING POINT OF LOVE
(Author: Do Anh Vu)

As usual, it happens once every four years.
They all came together from all over Europe.
Each team has its own unique representation of its homeland.
A myriad of hearts ablaze with passion.

When the ball rolls on the grass
All countries are equal.
Everyone has a sense of pride and self-esteem.
Every time you step onto the field, it's a new beginning.

24 teams compete against each other.
Some teams will advance far, while others will return home.
Tears and smiles, suffering and happiness
This sorrow is shared by the entire nation.

The love for football remains the same throughout the ages.
It is also a yearning for a life full of fulfillment.
Generations have passed down the spirit of chivalry.
Unwavering and resilient in every moment.

Victory night will be a sleepless night.
Millions of people flying under one banner...

FOOTBALL DIARY
(Author: Ngo Xuan Hoi)

Praise to an old goalkeeper
People often say he catches the ball with the agility of an eighteen-year-old.
But eighteen years old
No one was assigned to guard the goal!

REFLECTIONS ON EURO
(Author: Mai Nam Thắng)

Winning by two goals is not yet a victory.
Still, with heavy hearts, we packed our bags and said goodbye.
O warriors! How could you surrender your fate?
For the person who makes the decision?
Now my lips are bitter, my eyes are stinging...

One person's joy is another's pain.
Celebrations - the wedding of a lover
After the defeat, the coach resigned.
What a peaceful life it is to be indebted to the world of officialdom!

The one who destroys us is also our savior.
The savior suddenly becomes a villain.
Only those who cause us suffering can grant us happiness.
The round ball embodies the philosophy of love...

Why is love sometimes so different from football?
Why does life need those powerful red cards so badly?
The grass remains green, the poem's verses remain vibrant.
What color is the Euro looming?

FOOTBALL DREAM
(Author: Phan Vinh Dien)

Which son was he when he was a child?
Most of them are passionate football fans.
After school, we often run off to play football.
But poor people can't afford to buy a football.
Use a pomelo fruit, or tie straw together to make a ball.
As long as it fulfills your passion.

There were no shoes, they just kicked barefoot.
If there's no grass field, play on the sidewalk or in the alley.
Countless times I stumbled, fell, and scraped my leg.
Bang hurriedly ran into the rocks.
Scoring a goal is the ultimate aspiration.

I was stationed in the Central Highlands for 10 years.
Just imagine the day peace returns to our beloved capital.
The round ball, a shimmering symbol of dreams:
"Meeting the king of football, Pele"
He was a poor child who loved football.
"Become the King of Football, admired by all!"

5 years of studying in Moscow
Watching football in the stadium.
He thought he was a "football star".
Exciting and soaring amidst the clouds.
Awake, sleep, joy, and sorrow are all carried along by the ball.

The round ball brings joy to billions of people.
A world-renowned talented player.
The ball has also caused trouble for many people.
Greed for gambling led to the loss of his house and car...

The Euro finals are about to begin.
Promising many beautiful plays.
Once again, we eagerly await each match.
The whole planet is waiting for summer!
