僞球迷必看！英格蘭隊世界盃裝腔指南
2014年巴西世界盃倒計時！你是僞球迷？你只知道貝克漢姆？小編爲你推薦世界盃裝腔指南之英格蘭，還附贈關於英格蘭隊的歷史小知識哦！
老牌勁旅英格蘭隊自1950年以來，只錯過了94年一屆世界盃。本次巴西世界盃將是他們的第13次世界盃之旅。你知道英格蘭爲什麼被稱爲三獅軍團嗎？你知道爲什麼英國有4支國家隊嗎？你知道英格蘭隊曾靠誤判贏得了唯一一座世界盃嗎？
The lions have a history going back to the 12th century, when a standard with three gold lions on a red field was carried into battle to inspire the troops.
這些獅子的歷史可以追溯到12世紀時的紅底三金獅軍旗。
Later that century, Richard the Lionheart (1189-1199) used the three golden lions on a scarlet background as a symbol of the English throne and, after that, it appeared on the Royal Arms of every succeeding monarch.
12世紀晚期，獅心王理查（1189-1199在位）使用緋紅底三金獅作爲英格蘭王權的象徵。之後即使王朝更替，這個標誌都不曾從王室的紋章上消失。
So when the FA was formed in 1863, it seemed natural enough to base their logo on this stirring royal shield. Since then, the design has only been changed once, in 1949 - when the crown that was on top of the lions was removed to differentiate the badge from that of the English cricket team.
因此，當1863年英格蘭足總成立的時候，很自然的使用了皇室紋章作爲標誌的模板。在那以後，這個標誌只在1949年改變了一次——去掉了獅子頭上的冠冕以區別於英格蘭板球隊。
England and Scotland played the first game between two national soccer teams in Glasgow in 1872 in front of 4,000 spectators. Twelve years later, the national soccer associations of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland launched the British Home Championship tournament, which was contested almost every year for the next century.
世界上第一場國際性足球賽1872年于格拉斯哥舉行。這場比賽有4000名觀衆觀看，對陣雙方是英格蘭隊和蘇格蘭隊。12年後，英格蘭、蘇格蘭、威爾士和愛爾蘭創建了英國本土四角錦標賽，並在隨後的一個世紀中幾乎每年都會舉辦。
Meanwhile, FIFA, the governing body responsible for the World Cup, didn't come along until 1904. By that point, the United Kingdom's four independent national soccer associations were deemed too powerful to be combined.
另一方面，國際足聯直到1904年才成立。而那時英國的4個獨立足協已經因爲過於強大而無法合併了。
England's third goal in 1966 World Cup Final has remained controversial ever since the match.
1966年世界盃決賽中英格蘭隊的第三個進球一直存在爭議。
Modern studies using film analysis and computer simulation have suggested the ball never crossed the line, and that therefore this was not strictly speaking a goal.
現代研究使用錄像分析和計算機模擬顯示，當時足球並未越過門線。因此嚴格來說，這個進球無效。
