英格蘭
How they qualified With great difficulty and much anguish, despite not losing a game and scoring more goals than Spain and France put together. World Cup high Geoff Hurst still hasn’t had to buy his own pint since 1966. Roger Hunt probably has, though. World Cup low Not qualifying in 1974, 1978 and 1994 was pretty bad, but for nation-defining collapse, you can’t beat the 1-0 defeat to Ellis Island in 1950. Familiar faces Take your pick. Wayne, Stevie G, Frank, Theo, Ashley, Welbz ... um, who invited Jonjo? The manager Roy Hodgson: just one of those regular blokes who takes the Tube and tells jokes at half-time, and hardly ever has to regret it. How in danger is he? 8/10 Most likely to light up Brazil Rickie Lambert. OK, probably not, but tell the truth: the thought amused you, didn’t it? Most likely to be sent home in disgrace John Terry, after smuggling himself into the cargo hold and turning up for England’s first training session in freshly-ironed kit. Title odds: 25/1 The stereotype is … Pampered, overpaid prima donnas who choke under pressure and boot the ball long at every opportunity. The reality is ... Pampered, overpaid prima donnas who choke under pressure and boot the ball long at every opportunity, and Andros Townsend. What are they known for? Bagpuss 38 per cent Prog rock 35 per cent The Shipping Forecast 19 per cent Playing Paul Scholes on the left eight per cent How Brazilian are they? In terms of size, weather, geography, economy or temperament, not very much. In terms of football, though ... not very much. How Google translates the national anthem (into Portuguese) Deus salve a nossa rainha gracioso, vida longa a nossa nobre rainha, deus salve a rainha. Duration Long enough for some nitwit to shout “No surrender to the IRA”. How to dress like their fans Head-to-toe Jacamo for the guys, baggy T-shirt and jeans for the girls. Commentator's go-to stat The last man to score for England in a World Cup match? Matthew Upson against Germany, although Frank Lampard was hard done by.

晉級之路 英格蘭隊的晉級之路充滿艱辛,但他們仍取得了不敗的驕人戰績,進球數量超過西班牙隊和法國隊的總和。 世界杯高光時刻 作為1966年世界杯英格蘭奪冠功臣, 吉奧夫·赫斯特自從1966年后喝酒就再也沒掏過一分錢,不過羅杰·亨特應該還是要自己掏錢。 世界杯最低谷 1974年、1978年和1994年三度喪失世界杯參賽資格已經讓英格蘭人相當郁悶,但要說英格蘭舉國公認的災難級表現,還要數1950年在世界杯上0-1不敵埃利斯島。 知名球員 你自己選吧。韋恩·魯尼,史蒂夫·杰拉德,弗蘭克·蘭帕德,西奧·沃爾科特,阿什利·楊,丹尼·維爾貝克……呃,誰把瓊喬·謝爾維叫來了? 主教練 英格蘭隊主教練羅伊·霍奇森就是一個普通人,他也坐地鐵,還會在中場休息時講笑話,并且幾乎從不后悔。 他下課的可能性多大?80%。 誰最有可能在巴西世界杯大放異彩 瑞奇·蘭伯特。好吧,也許不是。不過說實話:你被逗樂了,不是嗎? 誰最有可能被提前遣送回國 約翰·特里,他會穿上剛印好號碼的球衣,坐貨輪偷渡到巴西,準備參加英格蘭隊第一場訓練,然后,就被警察抓到并遣送回國了。 奪冠賠率:25賠1。 人們對英格蘭隊的固有印象是…… 大吃大喝,自視甚高,一遇到壓力就崩潰,一遇到機會就浪費。 事實上的英格蘭隊 大吃大喝,自視甚高,一遇到壓力就崩潰,一遇到機會就浪費。當然,英格蘭還有安德羅斯·湯森。 英格蘭隊因什么而出名? 38%是因為電視節目《巴格普斯貓》 35%是因為前衛搖滾 19%是因為航運航行預測 8%是因為英格蘭隊讓保羅·斯科爾斯打左路 英格蘭隊和巴西隊有幾分相似? 無論是國土面積、天氣、地理位置、經濟還是氣質,英格蘭和巴西都不太像。論足球的話……實在是不太像。 用谷歌把英格蘭國歌翻譯成葡萄牙語 Deus salve a nossa rainha gracioso, vida longa a nossa nobre rainha, deus salve a rainha. 英格蘭國歌時長 英格蘭國歌實在太長了,總有些二貨會在播國歌時忍不住叫喚:“絕不向愛爾蘭共和軍投降?!?/p> 如何打扮成英格蘭球迷 男球迷從頭到腳都穿Jacamo,女球迷穿寬松的T恤和牛仔褲。 來自解說員的數據 上一次為英格蘭隊在世界杯上進球的是誰?2010年世界杯對陣德國隊時,馬修·厄普森為英格蘭隊打進一球。但其實當時弗蘭克·蘭帕德的進球本應該算作英格蘭隊在世界杯上進的最后一球。
