為“上帝之手”而戰 ‘Hand of God’ rivalry
No two teams have more World Cup history than Argentina and England. It’s fair to say they hate each other.
沒有哪支球隊能像阿根廷隊和英格蘭隊與世界杯有如此深的淵源。說他們彼此仇視一點都不假。
After the two nations fought each other in the 1982 Falklands War, they came face-to-face in a 1986 World Cup quarter final. Diego Maradona enraged most of England when he scored a crucial goal with his hand. It has gone down in history books as the “Hand of God” goal.
1982年馬島戰爭之后,兩國在1986年世界杯1/4決賽時狹路相逢。迭戈•馬拉多納用手攻入了關鍵一球,此舉著實激怒了英國人。這一記“上帝之手”進球已被載入史冊。
The rivalry deepened at the 1998 World Cup when David Beckham was controversially sent off for kicking an opponent.
在1998年世界杯上頗具爭議的一幕發生了,大衛•貝克漢姆由于一個腳踢對方球員的爭議性動作而被罰下場,這使得兩隊的競爭進入白熱化。
They will meet in the quarter-finals, and – if recent history is a guide – it will be a controversial game.
這次兩隊將對陣1/4決賽,就以往的經驗來看,這次比賽將又將引發眾多爭議。
