乌拉圭 点球大战淘汰加纳
梁文龙(2010-07-03)
门楣送走了本届世界杯的最后一支非洲球队,非洲的土地从此作为南美与欧洲球队的战场。
在巴西复赛败给荷兰被淘汰出局后,乌拉圭用运气而非技术淘汰了加纳,确保首天的两场复赛,南美球队不会全军覆没。在正赛1比1战和,加时仍旧不相上下的情况下,乌拉圭在点球上以4比2将对手淘汰。
来到点球大战,一切的技战术都是骗人的,谁能将幸运女神引到身边才最重要。你一拳,我一掌的点球方式,除了要有强魄的体格,也要有面对的勇气。
当加纳前锋吉安(Gyan)在加时赛最后一分钟的罚球打在门楣上,点球战加纳人在气势上已经矮了乌拉圭人一截,2010年世界杯注定再次陷入欧洲与南美球队的天下。

When the Ghana striker Jian (Gyan) in overtime last-minute penalty hit the lintel, Ghana on penalties in the momentum has been short of the Uruguayan part of it, is destined once again into the 2010 World Cup teams in Europe and South America the world.

Announcer: “…Hernandez brings the ball up the side, and passes to Torrado at midfield. Torrado dribbles forward around Fernandez. Juarez tries tackling Torrado, but as he goes for the ball, Torrado make a move to the right. Torrado fakes, then tries a header into the net, but the ball hits off the goalkeeper’s hands. This will result in a corner kick.”
A: Dude, This time, Cameroon is going to get beaten.
B: Watch, Mexico is going to lose this game.
Later:
Announcer: “…Hernandez is running upfield, Torres passes the ball to him, it looks like Torres is going to have a great shot for the goal, but the offsides flag goes up!”
A: man, Cameroon just got lucky. Cameroon just doesn’t know how to play defense. They need to play more man-to-man, and use a couple of midfielders to do that.
B: If only Mexico knew how to score when they have the ball. Watch, I’ve seen this before, Mexico is going to lose the game 2 to 1.

宣布者: “…埃尔南德斯带来边的球,并且通过对Torrado在球场中央部分。 Torrado在费尔南德斯附近今后滴下。 Juarez设法应付Torrado,但是,当他向球求助, Torrado采取行动在右边。 Torrado伪造,然后尝试倒栽跳水入网,但是球命中守门员的手。 这导致一个角球”。
A : 花花公子,这时,卡麦隆得到打。
B : 手表,墨西哥输掉这场比赛。 以后:

A : 人,卡麦隆得到了幸运。 卡麦隆就是不会打防御。 他们需要演奏更加一对一,并且使用几个球场中央部分做那。
B : 如果仅墨西哥会计分他们什么时候有球。 手表,我看见了此前面,墨西哥输掉比赛2到1。
