AZUZ: You might have heard the phrase "Don`t spit into the wind". And if you haven`t, you can probably figure out why you shouldn`t do it.

你可能听说过“不要随地吐痰”的谚语。如果没有，你可能要弄清楚不应该这样做的原因。

But who would have thought that kicking a soccer ball into the wind would be such a threat to winning. It carries the ball far behind the defender¹, bounces it, pushes it over the hand of the goalie and scores for the other team.

但谁又能想到，迎风踢球会对在球场上取得胜利构成威胁。球一脚被踢出去，后卫猝不及防，防守人员远甩其后，然后球反弹，逃过守门员的拦截，使得对方球队进球得分。

What a nasty own goal. The game would have been a victory for the team in white but nature tied things up, deter-wind to blow up a team`s momentum<sup>2</sup>, wind, lose or draw. It`s soc-hurts to watch.

多么可恶的乌龙球。这场比赛本应是白色球员们获得胜利，但天意弄人，一阵风将这支球队的获胜动力完全浇灭，风左右了比赛，输或平局。
