梅西預(yù)言將奪得大力神杯!

Argentina's journey to the world finals was an arduous one. In danger of elimination as the qualifying competition came to a close, they only booked their place in South Africa in their final game.

　　阿根廷的世界杯之旅異常艱難。預(yù)選賽行將結(jié)束之時(shí)，他們?nèi)蕴幱诳赡鼙惶蕴奈ｋU(xiǎn)之中，只是在最后一場(chǎng)比賽中才獲得一張南非世界杯的席位。

　　"The qualifiers are behind us now," he says. "For one reason or another we found it tough and we had to put a lot of hard work in. This is totally different, though. Argentina are always going to be one of the favourites. We've got some fantastic players and we are a great national team that's always right in there competing for trophies."

　　“預(yù)選賽已經(jīng)結(jié)束了，”他說(shuō)，“由于種種原因，我們遇到了一些困難，不得不進(jìn)行艱苦的比賽。然而，現(xiàn)在完全不同了。阿根廷隊(duì)總是最有力的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者之一，我們擁有非凡的球員，是一支作好準(zhǔn)備奪取獎(jiǎng)杯的偉大的國(guó)家隊(duì)。”

　　In Messi's eyes one of the main reasons he and his team-mates can go into the tournament in confident mood is the identity of their coach, Diego Maradona, a man who knows what it takes to win the biggest prize in football. "Exactly, we all know that," he says. "That's why I said that the qualifiers don't mean anything now. We have a lot of faith and desire, and Diego's experience is going to be crucial."

　　在梅西看來(lái)，他和隊(duì)友們確信自己能夠進(jìn)入世界杯決賽圈的最主要原因在于主教練的個(gè)性，迭戈·馬拉多納，這個(gè)了解如何贏得足球界最高獎(jiǎng)的人。“事實(shí)上，我們都明白，”他說(shuō)，“這就是我為什么說(shuō)資格賽現(xiàn)在毫無(wú)意義的原因。我們充滿信心和渴望，迭戈的經(jīng)驗(yàn)將會(huì)成為關(guān)鍵。”
