Deco hopes England still below par against Portugal MARIENFELD, Germany, June 27 (Reuters) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Portugal's creative midfielder Deco, suspended for Saturday's World Cup quarter-final against England, said on Tuesday he hoped the opposition would continue their below-par performances. "Sometimes I think people in England ask too much of the national team," Deco told a news conference. "The only thing I hope is at this match they are not at their best." 要被禁賽的Deco說，「有時候我認為，英格蘭的人們對於國家隊要求得太多。我只希望在這場比賽，他們沒能發揮到最佳水平。」 Sven-Goran Eriksson's men have failed to live up to expectations so far, and need to up the ante if they are to overcome Portugal who showed a new fighting spirit in their hard-fought win over the Netherlands in the second round. Playmaker Deco, one of four players sent off in that 1-0 win, laughed when asked if he would pay money to see an England team who were accused of boring Ecuador into submission in their 1-0 knockout game. "Even though they are not performing the best they can with their big players, the results show they are doing a good job," he said. "Yes, I would pay to see England, but I would prefer to see Portugal." 當被問到是否願意花錢去看英格蘭的比賽時， Deco笑說：「即使他們並沒有表現出最佳水平，但是結果仍然顯示他們做得不錯。是的我願意花錢看英格蘭的比賽，但我更願意選擇看葡萄牙的。」 STILL YOUNG However, Deco stopped short of comparing England striker Wayne Rooney to Brazilian World Cup winner Pele. "No-one can be compared to Pele," he said. "Rooney is a youngster with a lot of talent but to compare him with Pele is a lot. He has quality, he scores goals, but he is still young and still has many things to do in football." Deco不認為英格蘭的前鋒Wayne Rooney能夠和Pele做比較，「沒有人能夠和Pele比較。 Rooney是一名充滿天份的年輕球員，他有很好的水平、進很多球，但是他還太年輕，在足球上還有很多事情要做。」 Deco was sent off for a second yellow card in Sunday's brutal 1-0 win over the Dutch, and although the Portuguese Football Federation threatened to appeal the decision, the card and the suspension stand. That leaves Portugal, who also had midfield hardman Costinha dismissed, weakened in midfield. But Luiz Felipe Scolari's side have been without Deco and Costinha before, in their final Group D game against Mexico in which they also left Cristiano Ronaldo, Pauleta and Nuno Valente on the bench. They beat the Mexicans 2-1 in what was possibly their best display of football in the tournament so far. "We have players with a lot of quality, as we proved in the game against Mexico where the substitutes played wonderfully. Whoever plays in our place will do the same job," Deco said. "Without doubt I wanted to play (against England). It's sad to be out of this game but more important now is that the players who replace me and Costinha train well and have a good game so that Portugal progress to the semi-finals," he added. 「我們有很多不錯的球員，在之前和墨西哥的比賽就證明，我們的替補仍然表現出色。當然毫無疑問地我想(在和英格蘭的比賽中)上場，雖然要缺席這場比賽，會覺得很哀傷，不過現在最重要的是，取代我和Costinha的隊友能有一場好比賽讓葡萄牙進軍四強。」我很隨意地翻，大家就隨意地看看吧 XD -- ＋︵╭ │ ╮︵〈 │ │ │ ） ●_●_●_●_● ───── ！ＨＡＬＡ　ＭＡＤＲＩＤ！ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.130.54
