“The rules of soccer are very simple, basically it is this: if it moves, kick it. If it doesn’t move, kick it until it does.”
每每看到一场精彩激烈的足球比赛,不知怎的,James Brown的那首老歌儿”It’s a Man’s World”总会跳入脑海。
我往往自称是骄傲的女权主义者,但这世上有两件事情我特喜欢是All Male Cast。一个是好莱坞三十年代到七十年代的老电影,我最喜欢的十部影片几乎都是男星璀璨;再一个就数男子足球了,我记得利物浦职业球队的大主管好像说过这么一句话儿,“Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. I’m very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.”
二零一八世界杯小组赛到目前为止精彩纷呈,很多球队不是踢输了,只是没有赢罢了。今天的三场赛事以最后押尾的德国对瑞典最为惊险,我想瑞典球员都会同意这句话儿: Football is a simple game; 22 men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end (that extended 5 minutes), the Germans won。
世界杯只有一个,不论你踢得多么的漂亮,没赢就是输了,要记住: Second place is the First loser。
对了,我前面提到的那首歌儿,紧接着前两句重复的”It’s a Man’s World”是这么一句,”But it wouldn’t be nothing, Nothing without a woman or girls”。
