悲壮的足球比赛
the story of the dynamo soccer team of kiev is one of the legendary events of world war ii.
after kiev, the capital of ukraine, was occupied, the germans challenged the team to play against them. the ukrainians accepted the challenge, and scored one goal after another amid the cheers of the ukrainian spectators. the germans were furious. at half time a german officer came to the dynamo dressing room and ordered them"not to play too keenly", or they would be shot. the fans, unaware that the lives of dynamo were threatened, cheered them on to a score of 4-1.
finally, the ukrainian team was given three days to think about its position, and on 9 august 1942 there was a"friendly" rematch. dynamo again defeated the germans, after which most of the team members were executed. they turned soccer to martyrdom.

基辅有一支足球队名为发电机，其第二次世界大战事迹至今脍炙人口。
德军占领乌克兰首都基辅之后，挑战发电机足球队。这支乌克兰球队答应了，在乌克兰观众喝采声中，接连进球得分。德国人非常愤怒，中场休息时，一名德国军官来到发电机的更衣室，命令球员「不要太过卖力」，否则就要枪毙。球迷不知道发电机球员有丧命之虞，为他们欢呼打气，他们结果以四比一取胜。
最后，德国人给发电机三天时间考虑其处境。一九四二年八月九日，他们举行「友好」的重赛，发电机再次打败德国。其后，队员多数被处死。足球成为他们殉国之道。
