Nigeria 400 - Fiji 160 | |
|
可怜的斐济队找球手约瑟夫·斯努卡，他试图证明自己球队能以160比400惨败在夺冠热门尼日利亚队的手上。 |
Pity Fijian Seeker Joseph Snuka as he tries to justify his side's bruising 400 – 160 defeat at the hands of tournament favourites Nigeria. |
|
在比赛的初始阶段，斐济队的击球手昆迪亚·恩加拉塞和纳林德·辛格就没有尼日利亚的同行阿利科·奥科耶和默西·奥朱古那样凶狠。游走球给斐济的追球手造成了严重伤害，他们在第一个小时里只有一个进球，而尼日利亚队却进了四十个。 |
In the early stages of the game Fijian Beaters Quintia Qarase and Narinder Singh lacked the ferocity of their Nigerian counterparts Aliko Okoye and Mercy Ojukwu. The Bludgers did serious damage to the Fijian Chasers, who managed only a single goal during the first hour, compared with Nigeria's forty. |

让评论员困惑、斐济队球迷愤怒、尼日利亚人嘲笑的是，找球手斯努卡选择在第141分钟抓住飞贼，而当时他的球队正以400比10落后。虽然存在找球手通过抓住飞贼的方式缩小球队失分差距的先例（最著名的当属最近一次威克多尔·克鲁姆在1994年的决赛上抓住飞贼），但是在斯努卡抓住飞贼时，他的对手塞缪尔·埃奎亚诺离得还远。斯努卡以前曾被队友称为利己主义者，而他如今的举动并不会改变他的声誉。 |
To the bewilderment of commentators, the fury of Fijian supporters and the jeers of the Nigerians, Seeker Snuka chose to capture the Snitch in the 141st minute, when his team was trailing 400-10. While there is precedent for a Seeker choosing to catch the Snitch if so doing will minimise the margin by which their team are about to lose (the most famous recent occasion being Viktor Krum's Snitch capture in the 1994 final), Snuka's counterpart Samuel Equiano was some distance away when he chose to snatch the Snitch from the air. Snuka has previously been dubbed an egoist by teammates and today's actions will do little to change his reputation. |

斐济队经理兼教练赫克托·波罗波罗在赛后只说了一句话：“我要杀了他。” |
Fijian manager and trainer Hector Bolobolo's only comment after the match was 'I'm going to kill him.' |
|
Nigeria will face the winner of the Japan versus Poland match. |
