马塔周记：国家队我来了

马塔周记，每周一期。有了马塔蜀黍，麻麻再也不用担心我的英语了。

小伙伴们，大家好。今天，我在西班牙给大家写这篇周记。这周一我正在为本赛季第一次跟国家队一起训练做准备。这一次的情况比较特殊，因为国家队有一些重大的变化，正如你们所知道的，我们有了一名新主帅。接下来，我们要参加俄罗斯世界杯的预选赛了。我注意到在开始这段新旅程之前，我祖国的球迷们都很兴奋，当然了我们球员也期待着能有好的发挥，期待着好好享受与球队在一起的这几天。正如我之前说过的，我为入选国家队和成为球队的一部分感到荣幸。能来到这里总是让我兴奋无比，这种感觉非常特别。

Hi everyone.Today I’m writing from Spain, getting ready for the first training camp of the season with the national team this Monday. This time it’s going to be special because there have been major changes, as you know, including a new manager, and it’s the kick off for the Russia’s World Cup qualifiers. I notice there’s excitement in the football fans in my country ahead of this new stage and, of course, all of us are looking forward to do well and to enjoy again these few days with the team. As I already said before, I feel privileged to be called up and to be a part of the national team. Being here is always very exciting to me, it’s a special feeling.

在接下来的两场比赛中，第一场是友谊赛，但是水平可是顶级的。我们要对阵比利时，他们阵容中有许多优秀的球员，他们也刚刚更换了一名西班牙教练。这是一场去年11月被取消了的比赛，但是很幸运，现在我们可以把它完成了。在第一场对阵列支敦士登的预选赛(在莱昂举行)开始前，对我们来说对阵比利时是一个严峻的考验。我相信，在莱昂的球迷们会热烈欢迎我们的。

The first of the two games is a friendly one, yet a top level game: against Belgium, a squad full of great players and also with a new (and Spanish) manager. This is a game that had to be cancelled in November last year but luckily we can play it now. It’s meant to be a tough test ahead of the first qualifying game against Liechtenstein in León, where I’m sure our fans will give us a warm welcome.

正如你们所想象的，在英超三连胜之后，我们充满能量、满怀信心地迎来了国家队比赛日。上周六赫尔城给我们造成了很大的麻烦，但是我们的表现配得上拉什福德最后的绝杀。在90分钟的时间里我们尝试了一切，在最后阶段与队友和支持我们的球迷一起庆祝胜利的感觉太爽了。在伤停补时取得胜利别有风味，然而，下次我们还是要试着去提前锁定胜利。

As you can imagine, we reach the international break with plenty of energy and optimism after the third win in the Premier League. Last Saturday we suffered a lot to beat Hull, but Marcus Rashford’s late winner did justice to our performance. We tried everything during the 90 minutes and it was very exciting to celebrate the victory at the end with the team-mates and the fans who were there supporting us. Winning in the added time always leaves a special taste; however, next time we will try to close the game earlier.

在西班牙，西甲联赛已经进行两轮了。皇马十分艰难地战胜了塞尔塔，后者的表现相当不错。我喜欢他们的足球哲学，他们在比赛时充满勇气。

In Spain, la Liga is already into the first two weeks of the calendar. Real Madrid won again although it was really complicated against Celta, a team that is doing a great job. I like their football proposal, always with a daring style of play.

与此同时巴萨战胜了毕包，后者的比赛也很有趣，他们试着去踢出美丽的足球，同时还有着清晰的想法。这是一场精彩的比赛，双方都创造了一些机会。这是一场团队足球的比赛，客队最终全取三分，也取得了目前为止的第二场胜利。

Meanwhile, Barcelona won against Athletic, another team that is fun to watch, always trying to play good football and who maintains a very clear pattern. It was a very nice game, with a few alternatives and chances on both sides. It was in a collective play that the visitors grabbed the three points and their second win so far.

然而马竞的开局却并不顺利，他们没能击败莱加内斯，这是后者在西甲的处子赛季，在这个创造历史的赛季中他们还没有输过球。

Atlético hasn’t started so well though. They couldn’t defeat Leganés, a club that is new in the first division and hasn’t lose a game yet in this historic season for them.

我知道我上述的一些话题会在未来几天成为国家队队友间的谈资。能再次见到他们感觉真是太棒了。

I’m sure that some of these topics will be discussed in the next few days with my team-mates in the national team… It’s going to be great to see them again!

祝你们这周过得愉快，抱抱，娟儿。

Have a nice week.Hugs

PS：今天，我还想给意大利的读者们一个特殊的抱抱，我去过意大利很多次，在恐怖的地震过后，那里的城镇和乡村受到了极大的影响。

PS: Today I’d like to send a very special hug to all of you who are reading this from Italy, a country that I have visited plenty of times and is now suffering in many towns and villages the consequences of a horrible earthquake.
