賽事前瞻:德國VS加納
????The German striker and first recipient of a hat-trick ball at this tournament doesn't much look like a footballer. A dishevelled mess who runs like a drunk, Muller makes up by knowing exactly what to do when presented with a football in front of a goal. Against Portugal he scored 3 from 4 opportunities, which is a highly efficient return. One of them was a penalty, of course, but even that was despatched in the most Germanic manner possible.
德國前鋒托馬斯·穆勒完成了本屆杯賽第一個帽子戲法。穆勒看上去不怎么像足球運動員,邋里邋遢,跑動像個醉漢一樣,但他靈敏的的門前嗅覺彌補了這一切。對陣葡萄牙的比賽,穆勒四次射門就收獲三個進球,十分高效。當然,其中一個是點球,并且很有德國特色。
It's hard to predict where along the front line Muller will turn up, such is his versatility, but whichever burly Ghanaian defender is deployed to pull him out of shape will clearly have their work cut out. We've plumped for John Boye because we like his name. He sounds like he should be picking potatoes in Norfolk.
穆勒是前場多面手,很難預測他會出現在鋒線的什么位置。無論哪一個身材魁梧的加納后衛負責防守穆勒,他的工作都會非常困難。我們寄希望于約翰·博耶(John Boye),因為我們喜歡他的名字。聽起來博耶就像英國諾福克(Norfolk)撿土豆的家伙。

442預測(FourFourTwo prediction)
Closer than Germany's reputation may lead us to believe: 2-1 to Jogi Low's lads.
德國隊名氣固然很響,但比賽不會那么懸殊。勒夫的小伙子們2-1拿下比賽不成問題。
