Chelsea win the Champions League again
Written by Sabina Lavrič translated by JL Flanner & G Translate
Nogomet občudujejo in spremljajo povsod po svetu, še zlasti v Evropi, kjer nogometni klubi tekmujejo na enem najpomembnejših tekmovanj – Ligi prvakov.
Football is admired and watched all over the world, especially in Europe, where football clubs compete in one of the most important competitions - the Champions League.
V Ligi prvakov se za naslov najboljšega moštva v Evropi pomeri 32 ekip. To so klubi, ki so bili v svojih državah prvaki.
In the Champions League, 32 teams compete for the title of the best team in Europe. These are clubs that have been champions in their own countries.
Velikokrat v Ligi prvakov tekmuje več klubov iz posamezne države. Iz Španije denimo poznamo velika kluba Barcelono in Real Madrid.
Many clubs from each country often compete in the Champions League. From Spain, for example, we know the big clubs Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Iz Združenega kraljestva pa Chelsea in Manchester City. In prav ta dva angleška tekmeca sta se pomerila v sobotnem finalu Lige prvakov.
From the United Kingdom, Chelsea and Manchester City. And it was these two English rivals who competed in Saturday’s Champions League final.
Edini zadetek na tekmi je v 42. minuti dosegel nemški nogometaš Kai Havertz. Nogometaši v modrem so se tako po devetih letih spet veselili naslova evropskih prvakov.
The only goal of the match in the 42nd minute was scored by German footballer Kai Havertz. After nine years, the footballers in blue were once again looking forward to the title of European champions.
Najprej smo mislili, da bo finale Lige prvakov potekalo v turškem Carigradu, a je načrte prekrižala epidemija novega koronavirusa.
At first we thought the Champions League final would take place in Istanbul, Turkey, but plans were thwarted by the coronavirus epidemic.
Evropska nogometna zveza Uefa je želela, da bi lahko navijači najpomembnejšo tekmo svojih klubov spremljali s tribun.
The European Football Association (UEFA) wanted the fans to be able to watch the most important match of their clubs from the stands.
Finale Lige prvakov so zato preselili v portugalski Porto, kjer se je na stadionu Dragao zbralo okoli 16.000 navijačev.
The Champions League final was therefore moved to Porto, Portugal, where at the Dragao Stadium around 16,000 fans gathered.
Upamo, da bomo v naslednji sezoni v Ligi prvakov spremljali slovenski klub!
We hope to follow a Slovenian club in the Champions League next season!
