卫冕冠军西班牙率先“出局”
2024年巴西世界杯B组第二轮的比赛中,西班牙0比2负于智利,小组前两轮全败提前一轮出局。
Spain became the fifth holders to be eliminated from the World Cup at the first stage after their 2-0 defeat by Chile at the Maracana on Wednesday.
当地时间周三,在马拉卡纳球场0比2负于智利后,西班牙成为世界杯历史上第五个在小组赛就被淘汰出局的卫冕冠军。
在英语中,“被淘汰出局”可用be eliminated from/knocked out of表示,如:Spain was eliminated from/knocked out of the World Cup by Chile或者Chile eliminated Spain by 2-0.“卫冕冠军”在英语中多用defending champion表示,上文中的holders也表示同样的意思,因为冠军属于球队所有成员,所以用的是holder的复数形式。
另外,我们也可以用exit或head home来表示某支球队出局、打道回府,如:Spain is the fifth holders to exit the World Cup’s first stage.
