BBC：喀麥隆主教練極力挽回球隊名譽
Coach Volker Finke has called for Cameroon to show their best side against Brazil on Monday so they can leave the World Cup on a high.
據(jù)英國廣播公司報道，在23日對陣巴西的比賽前，主教練沃克爾-芬克（Volker?Finke）呼吁喀麥隆隊發(fā)揮最好的狀態(tài)，從而能夠昂首挺胸地離開世界杯賽場。
Cameroon cannot qualify for the next stage after a shambolic campaign of two defeats, a red card for Alex Song and fighting between team-mates.
經(jīng)過兩場失利，球員亞歷山大·宋（Alex?Song）的一張紅牌以及球隊的內(nèi)訌后，喀麥隆沒能晉級16強。
"Nobody wants to leave the country with a bad impression," Finke said."We need to show a different face to save our reputation - of the team, the players and of Cameroonian football."
“沒人想在離開的時候留下壞印象，”芬克說道。“我們需要轉(zhuǎn)變姿態(tài)挽回球隊、球員和喀麥隆足球的名譽。”
After being beaten 1-0 by Mexicoin their opening match, Cameroon self-destructed against Croatia. They were a goal down when Song was sent off for elbowing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic and capitulated to a 4-0 defeat.
繼在世界杯首場比賽中被墨西哥1-0擊敗后，與克羅地亞的比賽中，喀麥隆又自食其果。在落后一球的情況下，宋因為肘擊對方前鋒曼祖基奇（Mario?Mandzukic）而被紅牌罰下，最終喀麥隆0-4慘敗給對手。
The heavy loss would have been bad enough but was made worse by the ugly sight of Cameroon defender Benoit Assou-Ekotto headbutting team-mate Benjamin Moukandjo.
這還不算最糟，喀麥隆后衛(wèi)阿蘇-埃科托（Benoit?Assou-Ekotto）和隊友本杰明·穆坎德約（Benjamin?Moukandjo）的沖突，使原本失利的情況變得更糟。
"I think everyone has seen behaviour that is unacceptable. The players need to be an example for everyone, (but) I am not somebody who makes big speeches calling for drastic punishments," added Finke.
“所有人都認為這種行為不可接受，球員有必要為人們樹立榜樣，（但）我不贊成對這種行為進行嚴懲。”芬克還說道。
Meanwhile, Cameroon captain Samuel Eto'o remains a serious doubt for the match against Brazilas he continues to struggle with injury.
與此同時，喀麥隆隊長薩繆埃爾·埃托奧（Samuel?Eto'o）正受傷病困擾，在即將與巴西隊的比賽中狀態(tài)并不樂觀。
The striker injured his right knee in the Indomitable Lions' 1-0 defeat by Mexico in Natal on 13 June and has not trained since.
這名前鋒在13號與墨西哥在納塔爾0-1的比賽中傷到了右膝，之后沒再參加球隊的訓(xùn)練。
Finke, 66, dismissed speculation that Eto'o might be about to call time on his international career.
66歲的主教練芬克駁斥了埃托奧可能面臨國際足球生涯結(jié)束的猜測。“我認為現(xiàn)在還不是時候，他還有2年、3年或更多時間。”
"I don't think it's the moment. He has two, three or maybe four years left," said the coach of a player who has won 118 caps since making his international debut as a 15-year-old in 1997.
芬克曾經(jīng)也是一名球員，1997年15歲時便開始了國際賽事的征程，并代表國家隊贏得了118場比賽。
