賽事前瞻：西班牙VS荷蘭
據(jù)英國442足球網(wǎng)站6月12日報(bào)道，西班牙與荷蘭的小組賽比賽可看做是2010年世界杯決賽的重現(xiàn)，也可以看做是電影《搏擊俱樂部》（Fighting Club）續(xù)集。
The lowdown
賽事前瞻
The first rule about Fight Club Pt. II? Talk about Fight Club Pt. II: a game between two of the more attack-minded teams that could quite conceivably be a World Cup final-in-waiting, even if this group's top two face Brazil's group qualifiers in the second round.
《搏擊俱樂部》續(xù)集的第一條規(guī)則是什么呢？我們來看看這場比賽：這是一場崇尚進(jìn)攻的兩支球隊(duì)的較量，盡管他們在淘汰賽階段會碰到從巴西這個(gè)小組出線的隊(duì)伍，不過這場比賽也可以說是世界杯決賽的預(yù)演。
Last time, the Netherlands attempted to thwart Spain's technically superior attacking guile with physicality, most notably Nigel de Jong clattering into Xabi Alonso with a fearsome chest-high challenge in the game's early salvos. Howard Webb somehow neglected to wave a red card.
上次兩隊(duì)在世界杯碰面時(shí)，荷蘭隊(duì)視圖破壞西班牙富有靈性和激情的技術(shù)足球，最為著名的就是在比賽初期荷蘭隊(duì)德容（Nigel de Jong）對西班牙隊(duì)阿隆索（Xabi Alonso）狠踹胸口的惡意犯規(guī)，當(dāng)值主裁判韋伯（Howard Webb）不知為何，當(dāng)時(shí)沒有出示紅牌。
Four years on, and with Holland defeated that night, the balance has shifted a little. The ageing Iniesta-Xavi midfield axis has less impetus than in previous years, though it still possesses superior safe-cracking credentials over most.
四年過去了，雖然荷蘭隊(duì)當(dāng)時(shí)被擊敗，不過兩隊(duì)間的實(shí)力已經(jīng)發(fā)生了一些變化。西班牙中場核心伊涅斯塔（Iniesta）和哈維（Xavi）組合年事已高，盡管他們?nèi)匀痪哂写蠖鄶?shù)球員沒有的超高球技，但是與前些年相比他們前進(jìn)的動力有所不足。
Meanwhile, Holland manager Louis van Gaal has shifted out some of the disappointing Euro 2012 personnel and rejuvenated his squad with the likes of midfielders Jody Claise and Jonathan de Guzman. Experience with threat can be found in Robin van Persie (top scorer in qualification with 11 goals), Wesley Sneijder and Arjen Robben.
而荷蘭隊(duì)主教練范加爾（Louis van Gaal）清理了那些在2012年歐洲杯上令人失望的球員，并加入了一些新鮮血液，如中場球員克拉西（Jody Claise）和德古茲曼（Jonathan de Guzman）等。同時(shí)荷蘭隊(duì)還擁有一些經(jīng)驗(yàn)十足且極具威脅的球員，如范佩西（Robin van Persie）（世界杯預(yù)選賽階段進(jìn)球王，共打入11球）、斯內(nèi)德（Wesley Sneider）、羅本（Arjen Robben）等。
The verdict? If both teams stick to their positive MOs, this could be a mouthwatering tie.
比賽結(jié)果會是如何？如果兩隊(duì)都卯足干勁的話，這將是一場精彩絕倫的比賽，結(jié)果會是平局。
What the local media say
兩隊(duì)當(dāng)?shù)孛襟w的聲音
"The expectations for Oranje, which lost the final 1-0 to Spain in South Africa in 2010, are not high, if the local media is to be believed. Footie magazine Voetbal International quotes a worried Johan Cruyff as saying that ‘there hasn’t been enough time to prepare the team for a new way of playing.’" – Dutchnews.nl
荷蘭新聞網(wǎng)：“如果當(dāng)?shù)孛襟w可信的話，對于這支在2012年南非世界杯0-1輸給西班牙的橙衣軍團(tuán)，人們的期望值并不是很高?！蹲闱颉冯s志國際足球?qū)谝昧丝唆斠练颍↗ohan Cruyff）憂心忡忡的一番話：“這支隊(duì)伍準(zhǔn)備一種新打法的時(shí)間已經(jīng)不夠了?！?/p>
"David Silva has arrived in Brazil on peak form, to the point where he is knocking on the door of the starting XI and altering the manager's thought process – if the left-footer from Gran Canaria wasn't already in his original plans." – Marca
西班牙馬卡報(bào)：“大衛(wèi)?席爾瓦（David Silva）來到巴西時(shí)正處于巔峰狀態(tài)，他的狀態(tài)足可以讓他進(jìn)入首發(fā)11人的大名單。如果說這位來自加那利島（Gran Canaria）的左腳球員之前不在主教練的最初計(jì)劃之中的話，他現(xiàn)在正在改變主教練的想法?！?/p>
關(guān)鍵對位：阿爾巴VS 羅本
The Bayern Munich winger has been in stellar form this season, and can be described as one of the Oranje's true world-class talents. He has the speed and smarts to rock Spain on their heels, so how Alba lines up against him could be key. At Bar?a, where he sometimes doubles up as a midfielder, he has caught the eye with his passing and reading of the game; he also looks to attack from deep. With one eye on Robben, his aggressive instincts might have to be temporarily curtailed. Manchester United are reportedly interested; Van Gaal will be watching closely.
拜仁慕尼黑邊鋒羅本上賽季狀態(tài)出色，他也是橙衣軍團(tuán)中擁有世界一流天賦的球員之一。他速度和智慧兼?zhèn)洌阋詻_擊西班牙隊(duì)的防線，所以阿爾巴（Jordi Alba）披掛上陣對位羅本就是比賽的關(guān)鍵因素。在巴薩效力期間，阿爾巴有時(shí)也充當(dāng)過中場指揮者的角色，他的傳球和對于比賽的閱讀能力吸引著人們的眼球，他同時(shí)也嘗試著從后插上發(fā)動進(jìn)攻。他對于羅本的盯防可能會使其在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)的侵略性有所削弱。據(jù)報(bào)道紅魔曼聯(lián)對于阿爾巴很有興趣，因此荷蘭隊(duì)主教練范加爾自然會密切關(guān)注他的情況。
