昨天是2018年世界杯足球賽分組賽抽簽，英格蘭抽到與比利時，巴拿馬和突尼西亞同組。從表面上看，同隊有兩隊較弱的球隊，英格蘭以次名進級16強應該 (?) 是沒問題。
I don’t really watch football, but with my husband being a big football fan it's hard to avoid it at home.
我不太愛足球，但家裡有一個標準球迷，所以我是很難避免不看足球。而平時在 Steemit上玩的猜足球遊戲也是親子親公活動之一。
For me, watching England play in an international tournament is like buying a lottery ticket. When you buy a lottery ticket, you don’t expect to win the jackpot, yet you still have this shimmer of hope as you check the numbers. Deep down, no rational fan expects England to win an international cup, but each time you watch them play, you hope maybe they can win just this one more game to get to the next round.
對我來說，看英格蘭踢國際賽就像買彩票一樣。你購買一張彩票不會期望贏得大獎，但你每次對開彩結果總會抱著一點點希望。事實上，我相信沒有任何理性的球迷會認為英格蘭可以贏得冠軍。但每次他們比賽時，球迷總是希望他們可以多贏一場比賽進級。
Sadly, with England's past record, they are becoming a bit of a joke.
可惜，以英格蘭過往的戰績，他們已是被當做笑話。
問 : 英國國家足球對跟茶包有甚麼分別?
答 : 茶包會比英國國家隊留在杯 (賽)裡更長久!

As a female non football fan, my view on the English national team is pretty simple:
- treat them like your kids, hope for the best but prepare for the worse
- treat them like your family, sometimes (or most of the the time if you’re unlucky) they’re really annoying but there’s not a lot you can do about it
- treat them like your friends, you don’t see them all the time, so just have fun when you do
- and finally, treat them like your husband/boyfriend, don’t expect surprises, you’ll only be disappointed
I love my family, love my friends and love my husband, so I guess I love the English national football team.
作為一個非足球迷的女性，我對英格蘭國家隊的看法非常簡單:
- 把他們當作你的孩子，對他們抱著期望，但亦要作最壞打算
- 把他們當作你的家人，有時（不幸運的話是大部分時間)他們會很討厭，但你又不能做些什麼
- 把他們當作你的朋友，大家不是常常見面，那見面時還是開心點比較好
- 最後，把他們當作你的老公/男朋友，不要期待他們會給你驚喜，因為你只會得到失望
我愛我的家人，愛我的朋友和愛我的老公，所以我也愛英格蘭國家足球隊。
