C罗发文：梦想结束了……
北京时间12月11日凌晨（卡塔尔当地时间10日晚），2022年世界杯第三场1/4决赛，摩洛哥队1：0淘汰葡萄牙晋级四强，成为首支进入世界杯四强的非洲球队。据美国广播公司（ABC）报道，遗憾止步八强后，葡萄牙球星克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多（C罗）含泪离开赛场，他赛后在社交媒体平台上发帖称，自己为葡萄牙队赢得世界杯冠军的梦想结束了。
Cristiano Ronaldo said in a cryptic social media post that his dream of winning the World Cup with Portugal has ended, while stopping short of announcing his retirement from international duty. The 37-year-old Ronaldo left the field in tears after Portugal lost 1-0 to Morocco in the quarterfinals on Saturday.
In his first comments after the elimination, Ronaldo said Sunday that it was “time to take stock” without saying explicitly if he wants to carry on being available for Portugal after 19 years in the national team.
“There’s no point in reacting rashly,” Ronaldo wrote on Instagram. “I just want everybody to know that a lot has been said, a lot has been written, a lot has been speculated about, but my dedication to Portugal has never wavered for an instant. “I’ve always been just one more (Portuguese) fighting for everyone’s goal. I would never turn my back on my teammates or my country.”
Ronaldo, who is the all-time leading scorer in men’s international soccer with 118 goals, said putting Portugal “on the highest level in the world” was his biggest dream.
“In my five appearances at World Cups over 16 years, always playing alongside great players and supported by millions of Portuguese, I have given my all,” he wrote. “I left everything I had on the pitch. I’ll never shrink from a battle and I have never given up on that dream. “Unfortunately, that dream ended yesterday.”
“For now. There’s not much else to say. Thank you, Portugal. Thank you, Qatar. The dream was beautiful as long as it lasted.”
Currently without a club, Ronaldo has not indicated that he will retire from international football altogether and may still have plans to feature at the Euros in Germany in 2024.
至此，本次世界杯半决赛对阵出炉：克罗地亚vs阿根廷、摩洛哥vs法国。
With the quarter-finals concluded, FIFA World Cup 2022 is reaching its climax. Argentina, Croatia, France and Morocco are the four teams which have qualified for the semi-finals of the marquee tournament.
半决赛的第一场比赛将是阿根廷和克罗地亚之间的对决。在小组赛第一场对墨西哥和波兰的两场胜利以及对沙特阿拉伯的失利后，阿根廷以总分6分和净胜球3的成绩晋级2022年世界杯淘汰赛。阿根廷队在四分之一决赛中击败澳大利亚队，在四分一决赛中击败荷兰队。不出所料，梅西是将阿根廷带入半决赛的最重要球员之一。
克罗地亚以5分和3个净胜球的成绩以F组第二名的身份晋级淘汰赛，并在四分之一决赛中以2:4的点球战胜日本队。在四分之一决赛对阵巴西的比赛中，克罗地亚队在点球大战中击败了创纪录的世界冠军。门将利瓦科维奇上场赛事全场11次扑救+点球大战扑点，连场当选世界杯最佳球员。
摩洛哥则是历史上首支闯入世界杯4强的非洲球队，可以说是本届赛事的最大“黑马”。该队拥有严明的防守纪律，后防线十分稳固。而法国队坐拥姆巴佩和吉鲁的豪华锋线，这势必是一场矛与盾的对决。与葡萄牙队相比，法国队攻击点更为丰富，如果调动得当，卫冕冠军有望胜出。
