荷兰,德国会师决赛? 先乌拉圭这关

Uruguay won the World Cup twice and  squeezed through to the last four this year, after a penalty shoot-out with Ghana. The Uruguayans will appear in the semi-final for the first time in 40 years against the Netherlands on Tuesday.

乌拉圭在历史上赢得过2次世界杯冠军。本届世界杯，在经历了与加纳的点球大战之后，乌拉圭又挤进四强。本周二，乌拉圭将出现在半决赛中，40年来首次与荷兰队交战。

"We still have one more match to go to the final. The Netherlands are a hard opponent, a fast one, very strong physically. And also, they have very skilful players. We have to play the way we have been doing so far, game-by-game, in a calm way."

“在晋级决赛前，我们还有一场仗要打。荷兰是个强劲的对手。他们的速度很快，身体很强壮。此外，他们还拥有技术极其精湛的球员。我们一定要拿出近来的状态来与他们抗衡，步步为营，稳中求胜。”

Uruguay defender and captain Diego Lugano damaged a right knee ligament against Ghana. He is struggling to be fit for the semi-final.

乌拉圭后卫、队长迭戈卢加诺在同加纳进行的比赛中膝盖韧带受伤。他在努力恢复，以便能出战半决赛。

Notes:
penalty-shoot out: (in football) a way of deciding the winner when both teams have the same score at the end of a game. Each team is given a number of chances to kick the ball into the goal and the team that scores the most goals wins. 点球决胜，点球大战。
