AFP's team of the tournament for the 2010 World Cup, which concluded on Sunday when Spain beat the Netherlands 1-0 in the final at Soccer City in Johannesburg.
西班牙队上周日在约翰内斯堡足球城以1比0击败荷兰队,赢得南非世界杯足球赛冠军。以下为法新社评选出的本届世界杯最佳阵容。
Goalkeeper---Iker Casillas (ESP)
门将:伊戈尔·卡西利亚斯(西班牙)
The Spain captain's tournament got off to an appalling start when his error allowed Switzerland to score the only goal of the game in Spain's shock opening defeat. 'San Iker' went on to rediscover his best form though and his two crucial saves from Arjen Robben in the final proved that he remains the world's top shot-stopper.
虽然在小组赛首轮比赛中,西班牙队队长卡西利亚斯门前失误,让瑞士1比0爆冷击败了西班牙,但“圣卡西”在接下来的比赛中逐渐找回状态。在决赛中对阿尔杰·罗本射门的两次关键性扑救,更证明了卡西利亚斯当之无愧是世界第一门将。
Right-back---Sergio Ramos (ESP)
右后卫:塞尔吉奥·拉莫斯(西班牙)
Casillas's Real Madrid club-mate may be suspect defensively but he is a formidable competitor and a willing attacker and his flying forays down the right flank were a key feature of both the semi-final defeat of Germany and the victory against the Dutch in the final.
作为一名防守球员,或许卡西的皇马队友拉莫斯的防守能力会受到质疑,但毫无疑问,他是一名优秀的助攻型后卫。在西班牙队击败德国队和荷兰队的比赛中,拉莫斯在球场右侧飘逸的插上助攻起到了重要的作用。
Centre-back---Arne Friedrich (GER)
中后卫:阿内·弗里德里希(德国)
Having suffered relegation with Hertha Berlin last season, 31-year-old Friedrich came into the tournament on something of a low but produced a series of composed performances characterised by some impeccably timed tackles. The highlight was the 4-0 quarter-final thrashing of Argentina, in which he scored for the first time in Germany's colours.
虽然上赛季弗里德里希所在的柏林赫塔队被降级,31岁“高龄”的弗里德里希来到南非时正处于低谷,但他还是用赛场上沉着冷静的表现向世人展示出了老将的风采,尤其是几次干净利落的断球。在半决赛德国队淘汰阿根廷队的比赛中,他还打入自己在国家队的首粒进球。
Centre-back---Carles Puyol (ESP)
中后卫:卡尔斯·普约尔(西班牙)
The steel to the silk supplied by Xavi, Andres Iniesta and David Villa, Spain centre-back Puyol was at his combative best in South Africa and sent his side into the final with a bullet header in the 73rd minute of the semi-final win over Germany. Skinned in the final by Robben, but it was his only real moment of discomfort.
普约尔和哈维、安德列斯·伊涅斯塔、大卫·比利亚共同组成了西班牙的铜墙铁壁。西班牙中后卫普约尔在南非展现出了最佳竞技状态。在半决赛对阵德国的比赛中,普约尔在第73分钟头球破门,把本队送入决赛。在与荷兰队争夺冠军的比赛中,普约尔险用严重犯规阻止罗本单刀,但这是他唯一一次不愉快的经历。
Left-back---Fabio Coentrao (POR)
左后卫:法比奥·科恩特劳(葡萄牙)
Portugal may have bowed out in the round of 16 but Coentrao's relentless raids up and down the left wing made him one of the stars of the group phase. His best performance came in the 7-0 thrashing of North Korea but the converted winger proved his defensive qualities as well in the draws with Ivory Coast and Brazil.
虽然葡萄牙队止步16强,但是后卫球员科恩特劳的表现还是让人们眼前一亮。他在左路积极的跑动为球队的防守和进攻都带来了明显的效果。他在葡萄牙大胜朝鲜的比赛中表现最佳,在葡萄牙战平科特迪瓦和巴西的比赛中,他也展示了优秀的防守能力。
Central midfield---Bastian Schweinsteiger (GER)
中场:巴斯蒂安·施魏因施泰格(德国)
The effortless way in which Schweinsteiger assumed command of the German midfield meant that Michael Ballack's absence through injury was barely noticed. He and Sami Khedira prowled the centre of the pitch with unyielding authority and the Bayern Munich star was Germany's creator-in-chief in the famous victories against England and Argentina.
没有巴拉克的德国队一样能踢好比赛,施魏因施泰格对德国队中场游刃有余的掌控能力就证明了这一点。他和萨米·赫迪拉用不可动摇的权威性统治着中场,在对英格兰队和阿根廷队的比赛中,这位拜仁慕尼黑队球星无疑已成为赛场上的最高指挥官。
