It's lovely to see you again! Tomorrow and Saturday we'll be watching the four World Cup quarter-finals matches. The tournament is quickly coming to its dramatic conclusion, with every game more important than the last.?
May the best team win!
- A soccer game is divided into two halves: the first half and the second half. We can also say the first period and the second period.
The break between the first and second halves is called half-time. - サッカーの試合は、２部に分けられています。前半をthe first half、後半を the second half といいます。それぞれ、the first period、the second period と呼ぶこともあります。
前半と後半の間に入る休憩時間のことを half-time といいます。
- Italy scored early in the first half.
- The score at the end of the second period was tied 3-3.
