一代球王馬拉多納去世

Diego Maradona, the Argentine soccer great who scored the "Hand of God" goal in 1986 and led his country to that year's World Cup title before later struggling with cocaine use and obesity, has died. He was 60.

曾在1986年用“上帝之手”進球並助阿根廷球隊奪得當年世界盃冠軍而後又飽受吸毒和肥胖困擾的阿根廷球王迭戈·馬拉多納與世長辭，享年60歲。

Maradona's spokesman, Sebastian Sanchi, said he died Wednesday of a heart attack, two weeks after being released from a hospital in Buenos Aires following brain surgery.

馬拉多納的發言人塞巴斯蒂安·桑吉稱，馬拉多納於本週三（11月25日）死於心臟病，兩週前他剛做完腦部手術從布宜諾斯艾利斯的醫院出院。

The office of Argentina's president said it will decree three days of national mourning, and the Argentine soccer association expressed its sorrow on Twitter.

阿根廷總統府宣佈三天國喪來悼念馬拉多納，阿根廷足協也在推特上表達了哀思。

Maradona captivated fans around the world over a two-decade career with a bewitching style of play that was all his own.

在二十年的足球生涯中，馬拉多納以獨具個人魅力的踢球風格征服了世界各地的球迷。

Although his reputation was tarnished by his addictions and an ill-fated spell in charge of the national team, he remained idolized in soccer-mad Argentina as the "Pibe de Oro" or "Golden Boy."

儘管他的聲譽因爲吸毒和擔任國家隊教練敗績連連而受損，但他在瘋狂熱愛足球的阿根廷仍是受人崇拜的偶像，有“金色男孩”的美稱。

"You took us to the top of the world," Argentine President Alfredo Fernandez said on social media. "You made us incredibly happy. You were the greatest of all."

阿根廷總統阿爾韋託·費爾南德斯在社交媒體上寫道：“你曾將我們帶到了世界之巔。你曾讓我們無比快樂。你是最偉大的。”

The No. 10 he wore on his jersey became synonymous with him, as it also had with Pele, the Brazilian great with whom Maradona was regularly paired as the best of all time.

和巴西球王貝利一樣，馬拉多納穿的10號球衣幾乎成了他的標誌，這兩人一直被譽爲史上兩大球王。

"What sad news," Pele said Wednesday. "I lost a great friend and the world lost a legend. There is still much to be said, but for now, may God give strength to family members. One day, I hope we can play ball together in the sky."

貝利週三表示：“真是令人悲傷的消息。我失去了一個好友，世界失去了一個傳奇人物。還有很多的話想說，但我現在想說的是，願上帝賜給他的家人力量。我希望我們有朝一日能在天上一起踢球。”

Olympics superstar Usain Bolt also shared his condolences, posting a picture with Diego on his Twitter.

奧運會超級巨星尤塞恩·博爾特也在推特上分享了一張他和馬拉多納的合照，以表哀思。

Cristiano Ronaldo posted a heartfelt farewell, calling Maradona a friend, genius, magician and "one of the best ever."

克里斯蒂亞諾·羅納爾多（C羅）在網上發文與馬拉多納道別，他發自內心地將馬拉多納稱作朋友、天才、魔術師和“史上最佳”。

"Today I say goodbye to a friend and the world says goodbye to an eternal genius."

“今天我要和一個朋友告別，世界要和一個不朽的天才告別。”

"He leaves too soon, but leaves a legacy without limits and a void that will never be filled. Rest in peace, ace. You will never be forgotten."

“他離開得太早，但他留下了一份無窮的遺產和一個永遠無法被填補的空白。安息吧，朋友。你會被永遠銘記。”

Maradona said he was given a soccer ball soon after he could run.

馬拉多納曾說過，他剛會跑就有人給了他一個足球。

"I was 3 years old and I slept hugging that ball all night,” he said.

他說：“那時候我才3歲，我一整夜都抱着那個足球睡覺。”

Bold, fast and utterly unpredictable, Maradona was a master of attack, juggling the ball easily from one foot to the other as he raced upfield. Dodging and weaving with his low center of gravity, he shrugged off countless rivals and often scored with a devastating left foot, his most powerful weapon.

英勇、迅速、完全不可預測的馬拉多納是一個進攻高手，他帶球前進時可以輕鬆地將球從一隻腳轉移到另一隻腳。他在保持低重心的同時靠着躲閃和迂迴甩掉了無數的對手。他經常用逆天的左腳進球，那是他最強大的武器。

In 2001, FIFA named Maradona one of the two greatest in the sport's history, alongside Pele.

2001年，國際足聯將馬拉多納和貝利一起評爲兩大世紀球王。

Maradona reaped titles at home and abroad, playing in the early 1980s for Argentinos Juniors and Boca Juniors before moving on to Spanish and Italian clubs. His crowning achievement came at the 1986 World Cup, captaining Argentina in its 3-2 win over West Germany in the final and decisive in a 2-1 victory against England in a feisty quarterfinal match.

馬拉多納在國內外斬獲了衆多獎項，上世紀80年代初曾爲阿根廷青年人足球俱樂部和博卡青年競技足球俱樂部效力，之後又轉投西班牙和意大利的足球俱樂部。他的巔峯成就是在1986年世界盃上，率領阿根廷隊在決賽中以3比2打敗西德隊，並在對戰英格蘭的四分之一決賽激烈對戰中以2比1取得了決定性勝利。

In fact, his "Hand of God" goal against England during the 1986 World Cup is one of the most famous moments in soccer history.

事實上，他在1986年世界盃上以“上帝之手”進球擊敗英格蘭隊，是足球史上最著名的瞬間之一。

Maradona was tracking down a ball and slyly used his hand to punch it over the goalkeeper into the net -- while pretending his hand never actually touched it. His acting job worked and the goal counted!

馬拉多納在追球時偷偷地用他的手將球越過守門員擊入球網，同時假裝自己的手從來沒碰過球。他的表演起作用了，這個進球被判定有效。

"I am Maradona, who makes goals, who makes mistakes. I can take it all, I have shoulders big enough to fight with everybody," Maradona once said.

馬拉多納曾說過：“我是馬拉多納，我能進球，但我也會犯錯誤。我可以承受一切，我的肩膀足夠寬大，可以和每個人作戰。”

"You can say a lot of things about me, but you can never say I don't take risks."

“你可以說我這說我那，但你永遠不能說我不敢冒險。”
