This time, there was no 'Hand of God' to assist, nor did Argentina need to rely on such intervention.

此番并无“上帝之手”相助,阿根廷亦无需依赖于此。

Instead, it is Lionel Messi's deified feet and the indomitable spirit of a team that has repeatedly staged dramatic comebacks in this World Cup that have brought them within a single step of defending their title.

取而代之的是莱昂内尔·梅西那双被奉若神明的双脚,以及一支在本届世界杯中屡屡上演绝地反击的球队所展现出的不屈意志,如今他们距离卫冕仅剩一步之遥。

On Wednesday, Argentina, trailing 0-1, staged a comeback to defeat England 2-1, thanks to goals from Enzo Fernández and substitute Lautaro Martínez in the 85th minute.

周三,阿根廷在0-1落后的不利局面下,于第85分钟凭借恩佐·费尔南德斯与替补登场的劳塔罗·马丁内斯的进球,最终以2-1逆转战胜英格兰。

"I dreamed of this moment, I swear.

“我梦到过这一幕,我发誓。

I told Alexis (Mac Allister) that I would score.

我告诉亚历克西斯(麦克·阿利斯特)我会进球。

I told him I would come on and win the match," said Martínez.

我告诉他我会登场并赢得比赛,”马丁内斯说。

"I can tell you, this team keeps demonstrating its strength."

“我可以告诉你,这支球队不断展现出它的实力。”

As the final whistle blew, Messi dropped to his knees in celebration of victory, while the English players once again collapsed onto the turf in disbelief.

终场哨声甫落,梅西便跪地欢庆胜利,而英格兰球员则再度难以置信地瘫倒在草坪之上。

The year 2026 is set to follow in the footsteps of 1986 and 1998, becoming yet another World Cup match in which Argentina crushes England's hopes.

2026年将步1986年和1998年的后尘,成为阿根廷在世界杯上再次扼杀英格兰希望的一场比赛。

"I feel heartbroken for the team, the staff, and the fans," said England captain Harry Kane.

“我为球队、工作人员和球迷感到痛心,”英格兰队长哈里·凯恩说。

"We put in tremendous effort to get here.

“我们付出了巨大努力才来到这里。

The players shed blood, sweat, and tears.

队员们流尽了血、汗和泪。

To fall short like this is truly heartbreaking."

像这样功亏一篑真让人心痛。”

The defending champions will face European champions Spain on Sunday in East Rutherford, New Jersey, in a highly anticipated clash between the pinnacles of South American and European football.

卫冕冠军将于周日在东卢瑟福(新泽西州)迎战欧洲冠军西班牙,这场南美与欧洲足坛的巅峰对决备受瞩目。

This defeat will leave an indelible scar on the hearts of a new generation of English fans, its impact as profound as Diego Maradona's infamous handball goal in the 1986 World Cup quarter-final, or the bitter memory of the team's penalty shootout exit in 1998 after David Beckham was sent off for a reckless foul.

这场失利将在新一代英格兰球迷心中留下难以磨灭的创伤,其影响之深远,堪比1986年世界杯四分之一决赛中迭戈·马拉多纳那记臭名昭著的手球进球,或1998年大卫·贝克汉姆因恶意犯规被罚下后,球队在点球大战中饮恨出局的惨痛记忆。

The difference this time lies in the fact that, although England seemed on the verge of victory after Anthony Gordon opened the scoring in the 55th minute, it did not provoke any sense of injustice.

此次的不同在于,尽管英格兰队在第55分钟由安东尼·戈登首开纪录后一度胜利在望,却并未引发任何不公正感。

As the match progressed, the England team gradually found themselves in a predicament of barely holding on.

随着赛事推进,英格兰队逐渐陷入苦苦支撑的窘境。

Although goalkeeper Jordan Pickford made a crucial save, Mac Allister's header struck the post, and Argentina's attacks surged like relentless waves, one after another.

门将乔丹·皮克福德虽做出关键扑救,但麦克·阿利斯特的头球攻门击中门柱,阿根廷队的攻势如潮水般一波未平一波又起。

Although Messi was largely contained, the moment he stepped onto the pitch, everything seemed to brim with boundless potential.

梅西虽在很大程度上受到压制,然而一旦他登场,一切便仿佛充满了无限可能。

In the 85th minute, he delivered the ball with precision to Fernández, who then struck a powerful shot from outside the penalty area to score, thereby leveling the score.

在第85分钟,他精准地将球输送至费尔南德斯脚下,后者在禁区外抽射破门,从而将比分扳平。

In the second minute of stoppage time, Messi sent in a cross, and Martínez headed the ball into the net, ultimately securing the victory.

进入伤停补时第2分钟,梅西送出传中,马丁内斯则头槌建功,最终锁定胜局。

It almost felt like an inescapable fate, especially given how many times Argentina refused to yield during this World Cup.

这几乎令人感到宿命难违,尤其是考虑到阿根廷在本届世界杯上无数次拒绝屈服。

From Cape Verde to Egypt, Messi and his teammates always managed to find a way to break through.

从佛得角到埃及,梅西与队友们总能觅得破局之道。

"This highlights our collectivism, brotherhood, and fighting spirit to the very end," said Argentina's head coach Lionel Scaloni.

“这彰显了我们的集体主义、兄弟情谊以及战斗到底的精神,”阿根廷主教练莱昂内尔·斯卡洛尼说。

"We were ready to go home, saddened by the knowledge that we had given everything on the pitch, but after they scored, we truly proved ourselves."

“我们已准备好回家,虽然伤心地知道我们在场上付出了一切,但在他们进球后,我们真正证明了自己。”

In contrast, England suffered their third defeat in a World Cup semi-final—having previously lost to Germany in 1990 and to Croatia in 2018.

相比之下,英格兰在世界杯半决赛中已是第三次失利——此前1990年负于德国,2018年不敌克罗地亚。

Moreover, this marked yet another instance in recent major tournaments where English players squandered a lead in the latter stages of a match.

而近年来重大赛事中,英格兰球员在比赛后期阶段浪费领先优势的情况,又增加了一次。

In that semi-final eight years ago, they had taken a 1-0 lead over Croatia, only to be overturned 1-2 in the end.

八年前的那场半决赛中,他们曾以1-0领先克罗地亚,但最终被1-2逆转。

As for the 2021 European Championship final, they again scored first, taking a 1-0 lead against Italy, only to lose in a penalty shootout.

至于2021年欧洲杯决赛,他们同样率先破门,以1-0领先意大利,却在点球大战中失利。

On Wednesday, England manager Thomas Tuchel appeared to prioritise shoring up the defence and preserving the lead in his substitutions, rather than scoring another goal to definitively put the match beyond doubt.

周三,英格兰队主教练托马斯·图赫尔在换人调整上似乎更侧重于稳固防线、保住领先优势,而非通过再入一球来彻底终结比赛悬念。

"Argentina played more daringly and at a faster tempo; they seemed to have nothing to lose, and that mentality liberated them while simultaneously constraining us — because we suddenly realised that we were burdened by the heavy weight of victory and defeat," Tuchel remarked.

“阿根廷踢得更冒险,节奏也更快,他们似乎没什么可输的,这种心态解放了他们,却也束缚了我们——因为我们突然意识到,自己背负着沉重的输赢包袱,”图赫尔说道。

Argentina stands on the brink of history.

阿根廷距离历史仅一步之遥。

At 39 years old, Messi is likely playing in his final World Cup, and with just one more victory, he can further cement his status as the greatest footballer of all time.

现年39岁的梅西极有可能正在征战其最后一届世界杯,只需再赢一场,便能进一步巩固其作为史上最伟大足球运动员的地位。

"We will do everything in our power to secure victory and give our all," Scaloni stated.

“我们将竭尽全力争取胜利,并倾尽所有,”斯卡洛尼表示。

"It is no easy task to make people grasp the qualities these players have demonstrated.

“要让人们理解这些球员所展现出的特质,实属不易。

It is utterly astonishing.

这简直令人难以置信。

We are unique, truly — this is not arrogance, but a heartfelt statement.

我们是独一无二的,真的,这并非傲慢之辞,而是肺腑之言。

We are unique."

我们是独一无二的。”
