賽事前瞻：巴西 VS 哥倫比亞
據(jù)442足球網(wǎng)站7月4日報道，北京時間7月5日凌晨4點，巴西對陣哥倫比亞的四分之一決賽即將在福塔萊薩打響，讓我們來聽聽媒體對這場比賽的看法。
What the local media say
當?shù)孛襟w的聲音
"Millions of Colombians took part in spontaneous and euphoric celebrations after their national team - for the first time in soccer history - reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
今日哥倫比亞網(wǎng)：“數(shù)百萬哥倫比亞人歡欣鼓舞，自發(fā)的慶祝他們國家隊所取得的成績，這是哥倫比亞隊足球歷史上第一次闖入世界杯四分之一決賽”
"The celebrations broke out just before 5pm local time after the whistle blew for Colombia-Uruguay in which Los Cafeteros convincingly won a ticket to compete with Brazil, who earlier in the day beat Chile. Following the final whistle, tens of thousands of Colombians took to the streets and drove around waving flags and balloons, while blowing horns and spraying foam, amid blasting stereos." - TodayColombia.com
“當?shù)貢r間下午5點，當裁判吹響終場哨聲，咖啡種植戶（哥倫比亞隊昵稱）令人信服的拿下烏拉圭隊，得到與巴西一戰(zhàn)的機會后，民眾爆發(fā)了熱烈的慶祝活動。而巴西一天前剛擊敗智利。比賽結束后，成千上萬的哥倫比亞民眾沖上街頭，到處是掛著國旗和氣球的汽車，人們吹著喇叭，在震耳欲聾的立體音響聲中互相噴著噴雪。
"Not by much, but Brazil’s World Cup dream remains alive. After a 1-1 draw against Chile following 120 minutes of grueling football, the hosts prevailed after a nerve-wracking penalty shootout. And the man to convert the winning penalty, ice cool under the glare of 170 million people? Neymar?
《里約時代周刊》網(wǎng)絡版："雖然希望不大，但我們的冠軍之夢未死！巴西隊與智利隊激烈戰(zhàn)罷120分鐘被1比1逼平，東道主最終在扣人心弦的點球大戰(zhàn)中取得了勝利。那么，在1億7千萬人屏息注視下，冷靜的打進制勝球的人是誰呢，他就是內(nèi)馬爾！"
"While he saved Brazil’s bacon once again, a trend is beginning to emerge. Brazil, for all the talent they possess, are far too reliant on their No. 10. Chile are hardly a team packed to the rafters with superstars. Alexis Sánchez is their standout performer and, on paper at least, Brazil should have had too much for their South American neighbours." - Rio Times Online.
"內(nèi)馬爾再次挽力挽狂瀾，拯救巴西，這已經(jīng)成為一種趨勢，巴西隊友如此多天才球員，但他們太過依賴他們的10號。很難說智利隊是個超級球星扎堆的球隊，桑切斯（Alexis Sánchez）是他們最杰出的球星，但至少從陣容上看，巴西比他們南美的鄰居要強太多了。"
Key battle: Marcelo vs Juan Cuadrado
關鍵對位： 馬塞洛 VS 胡安·夸德拉多
James Rodriguez grabbed the headlines against Uruguay with his Hotshot Hamish-style volley (a shoo-in for Goal of the Tournament, surely), but it's attacking midfielder Cuadrado who makes this team tick. Combining pace and muscular strength with quick-footed trickery, he has bamboozled full-backs throughout the tournament, delivering 4 assists and 1 goal of his own.
羅德里格斯在對陣烏拉圭一役中用他哈梅斯式的勁射登上了頭版頭條（也是本屆杯賽的一大亮點），但哥倫比亞的進攻中場夸德拉多才是讓整個隊伍運轉起來的關鍵，這名球員有著良好的節(jié)奏感，不錯的肌肉力量，且腳下技術又快又靈活，比賽中他多次戲耍對方的后衛(wèi)們，目前他已有4個助攻1個進球入賬。
Against Marcelo he could enjoy another field day. The Real Madrid left-back has looked defensively suspect all tournament, often being caught out of position; he has a worrying tendency to get on the wrong side of his man when tracking from a midfield area. If he doesn't buck his ideas up, Colombia could run Brazil ragged.
對夸德拉多來說，對位馬塞洛可能又是一個好日子，根據(jù)目前的表現(xiàn)，這位皇馬左邊后衛(wèi)是整個世界杯防守最不力的人，經(jīng)常在比賽里失位，他還有個讓人擔心的問題，在前插到中場以后回防總是走錯邊，如果馬塞洛不趕緊打起精神，哥倫比亞可能會把巴西打成篩子。
Facts and figures
歷史數(shù)據(jù)
