[閒聊]Time雜誌的一篇應景文

[sslah (少年顏清標之龍爭虎鬥)]

Soccer : An American game


"There's a big fan base for each team here.

And U.S. fans love big events: they love something where

the excitement builds," says Russell Wolfe, head of ESPN International.


內文很長所以就不貼了

介紹歐洲強隊以及敘述歐洲移民在美國足球歷史上的影響

內文還說到歐洲國家杯決賽會在ABC上直播

而且收視率會超越NHL(曲棍球聯盟)的決賽(!)─在十年前是難以想像的(!!)


不過我想問其中一段 是講德國隊的 (在第二頁的第三段 Germany開頭)

"You're looking at a team with five or six guys that are 6 ft. 3 in.,

 6 ft. 4 in.," says Keller. "They can still be mechanical — we are

going to win a free kick — then there's going to be five monsters flying 

into the box." Pencil in the monsters for the semis.


這句看不太懂 五隻怪物飛進球門？XD

有沒有版友知道這句要什麼解釋？

謝謝指教~

推 indigo:在講德國球員的身材吧，Kelly 是守門員啊。
推 wannastop:box是指禁區不是球門
→ wannastop:這句就是FK時會有五個大高個進去禁區搶點的意思吧
→ japan428:在講Gomez其實是被五個大漢抓住手腳無法進球的事(誤)
推 indigo:喵咧一樓名字打錯 XD
→ sslah:喔喔 原來BOX是指禁區
