So far, many games have passed. The highlight came to England and Luxembourg. Luxembourg has beat England with a big score in the last World Cup , but missed the final match with a regrettable mistake. This time the comeback let Luxembourg fans have more expectations.

迄今为止，比赛已经过去了许多场。而这次的亮点又来到了英格兰队和卢森堡队上。卢森堡队在上一届的世界杯赛上曾大比分打败了英格兰队，但最后因为一个遗憾的失误而无缘决赛。这一次的复出让卢森堡队球迷非常期待。

Although Luxembourg has not won the championship, but its strength is also recognized by other teams. Luxembourg has been known for its smooth running in the past and has never fallen to the last 20 in previous games, but has always missed the final because of some ridiculous mistakes. In this World Cup, Luxembourg's strength is extraordinary: the beginning of the season, Luxembourg won a large score against Bulgaria, Russia, South Africa and many other famous teams. In the second half of the season, Luxembourg's strength is even higher, and defeated Scotland and many other teams.They rely on the outstanding performance of the three sisters, Evans, and went to the finals. So, Matthew, Lules, and Hibiscus Evans have won a lot of praise and a billion fans.

卢森堡队虽然没有获得过冠军，但它的实力是其他队公认的。卢森堡队在过去的比赛中以平稳著称，它们在以往的比赛中从未跌入后20名，但也总是因为一些可笑的错误而无缘决赛。在本次世界杯赛上，卢森堡队的实力超常发挥：赛季一开始，卢森堡队就以大比分赢下了保加利亚队、俄罗斯队、南非队等许多著名球队。在赛季的后半段，卢森堡队的实力更是水涨船高，又接连打败了苏格兰队等众多球队。他们依靠追球手伊万斯三姐妹的出色表现一路乘风破浪，闯入总决赛。所以,马修、卢尔斯和芙蓉·伊万斯也因而获得了许多赞扬以及高达10亿的粉丝。

Luxembourg and England will be at their peak in the final. "England have made a lot of progress, but we're going to try ,Try to defeat England again!!!"said Luxembourg captain Alfred Smith.England captain Oliver Wood said :" England have been defeated by Luxembourg many times before, but after years of hard work, I believe we will win this game!!!" We don't know who wins or who loses. Now let's take a look at England.

卢森堡队将和英格兰队在决赛交峰。关于这场比赛，卢森堡队队长伍尔弗雷德·史密斯声称“英格兰队有许多进步，不过我们也一定会努力的！争取再次击败英格兰！！！”。英格兰队队长奥利弗·伍德表示“英格兰队之前确实被卢森堡队击败过好多次，但经过这几年队员们的苦练，我相信，我们会赢得这场比赛的！！！”。两队谁胜谁负，我们还不知道，现在我们来看一下英格兰队的情况。

England had some star players a peak in the past Quidditch World Cup, such as Rodriguez Prenton,who has catched the golden thief in 3.5 seconds and setted a record, and Younis Murray,Hamish McFarland etc. But these star players have retired. Because of their retirement, England's strength is getting worse and worse.They were almost in the bottom in the previous World Cup

英格兰队在历史上的魁地奇世界杯赛上曾出现一些明星球员，如用3.5秒抓住金色飞贼、创下记录的罗德里·普伦敦，再比如尤尼斯·默里、哈米什·麦克法兰等。但这些明星球员相继退役。由于他们的退役，英格兰队的实力越来越差，在前几次的世界杯赛上，他们的成绩几乎垫底！

But England's performance has surprised fans in this World Cup.At the beginning of,England has showed strong strengths and beatten Brazil, Argentina, Chile and many other teams.In the match of the last World Cup champion——Ireland,footballer of the team Qiu Zhang has unexpectedly rushed into the audience to seize the golden thief ,440-290 to win! It also makes England a little famous.

但是英格兰队在本届世界杯赛上的表现让球迷们眼前一亮。比赛一开始，他们就显现出雄厚的实力，一连击败了巴西、阿根廷、智利等许多球队。在与上一届世界杯赛的冠军——爱尔兰队比赛的过程中，找球手秋·张竟冲进观众席抓住了金色飞贼，以440比290的成绩战胜了爱尔兰队！这一战也使英格兰队小有名气。

In the interview, England captain Oliver Wood agreed me to visit their training.So,I went into the training room and visited their devilish training: the players had breakfast at 5 a.m. and began training, except for meals and three hours of rest a day. They were training until 9 p.m. After four hours of training, I bought them chilled pumpkin juice and interviewed the players. "We're tired and tired every day, which is undeniable." said Ginny Weasley, the player  of Luxembourg,"But we're all willing to do this and we' re happy every day because we have to beat it ,"

采访时，英格兰队队长奥利弗·伍德同意我去参观他们的训练。于是，我走进训练室，参观了他们魔鬼式的训练：队员们早上5点吃过早饭，便开始训练，除了吃饭和每天3小时的休息时间，他们都在训练，直到晚上9点上床睡觉。在他们训练了4个小时后休息时，我给他们买了冰镇南瓜汁，并采访了各个队员。“我们每天都很累很累，这当然是不可否认的。”找球手金妮·韦斯莱对我说，“但我们都愿意这样训练，而且每天都十分高兴，因为我们一定要打败卢森堡队。”

Overall, the Bulgarian team's strength declined the most.Following the legendary Viktor Krum announced his retirement last month, their strength plummeted and became the last one in this World Cup. After the retirement of Viktor Krum, he often donated money from his career to the International Quidditch Association a philanthropist. In his spare time, he is also a Quidditch fan and often plays Quidditch. But he was disappointed by Bulgaria's performance in the World Cup.Bulgaria captain Dimitrov was violent and angry recently.For this, Viktor Krum himself went to comfort him several times, but not very successful.

纵观其它各队，保加利亚队的实力下降的最厉害。继传奇人物威克多尔·克鲁姆在上个月宣布退役后，他们的实力直线下降，在本次世界杯赛上总分垫底。威克多尔·克鲁姆退役后，经常将它职业生涯中获得的钱捐给国际魁地奇协会，成为一个慈善家。在业余时间中，他也是魁地奇的狂热爱好者，经常打魁地奇球。但对保加利亚队在本次世界杯赛上的表现十分失望。保加利亚队队长迪米特洛夫最近脾气暴躁，经常气急败坏。为此，威克多尔·克鲁姆好几次亲自去安慰他，但都不太成功。
