Carlos Tevez and his former Manchester United team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo share a birthday
卡羅斯特維斯與他的前曼聯隊友C羅同一天生日。

If you were born on 5 February and you're not a professional footballer, you could be in the wrong job.

如果你2月5日出生，但不是個專業足球員，你可能入錯行啦。

It just so happens this particular day is a birthday jackpot in the world of football.

世界足壇的生日大獎，就這麼獎落在這特別的一天。

There are not just a couple of big football names who share this birthday, there are actually quite a few.

不只一兩個足球大咖都在這天生日，實際上，還真有好幾個。

We'll start with easily one of the best in the business, ever...

我們先從這個產業以來，很容易被視為最好的一個開始說起....

Cristiano Ronaldo, 35
C羅，2020年滿35歲

Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo is celebrating his 35th birthday on Wednesday... just days after scoring his 50th goal in 70 appearances for Juventus.

週三，五度金球獎得主C羅慶祝了他的35歲生日......在為尤文圖斯的70次上場取得了第50顆進球之後。

We're used to his routine brilliance but his CV is still stunning to consider - 623 goals in 830 club appearances, plus five Champions Leagues, six league titles and captaining Portugal when they won Euro 2016. And that's just some of his achievements.

我們已經對他的不變的精湛習以為常，但他的履歷看著仍然耀眼——830場俱樂部上場帶來了623顆入球，加上五座歐冠冠軍、六座聯賽冠軍與領軍葡萄牙贏得2016歐洲盃，而那只是他一部份的成就。

And there's no sign of any slowing down.

而這些成就，還沒有任何任何緩下的跡象。

Cristiano Ronaldo has 164 Portugal caps and 99 international goals
(截至2020年2月)C羅以隊長身份上陣了164場並打入99國際賽進球

From one birthday boy to another who's arguably almost as famous...

而從壽星一號，到另一個爭議與名氣等身的壽星...

Neymar, 28 - aka the most expensive player of all time (222m euros)
內馬爾，2020年滿28歲

You might have seen in the news that Neymar has already celebrated his birthday.

你應該從新聞上看到內馬爾已經慶完生了。

The Paris St-Germain striker hosted a lavish white-themed party at Parisian nightclub Yoyo, on Sunday, with a host of celebrities and fellow players including Edinson Cavani, Marco Verratti, Angel di Maria, and Memphis Depay among those on the guestlist.

週日，這位巴黎聖日耳曼的射手，在巴黎的夜店「Yoyo」與諸多名流和包括卡瓦尼、維拉蒂、迪馬利亞、德佩等出現在賓客名單上的成員，舉辦了一場奢華的白色主題派對。

A day later it was announced he would miss PSG's match with Nantes because of a rib injury.

一天之後，俱樂部就宣告因為肋部傷勢，他將會錯過PSG與南特的比賽。

Paris St-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel branded Neymar's birthday party "a distraction"
巴黎聖日耳曼主教練湯瑪斯圖切爾，將內馬爾的生日派對冠為「一個干擾因素」

From one South American forward to another...

從南美前場一號，到另一位前場...

Carlos Tevez, 36 卡羅斯特維茲，2020年滿36歲

Boca Juniors and Argentina striker Carlos Tevez is 36 on Wednesday.

博卡青年與阿根廷射手卡羅斯特維斯，週三也滿了36歲。

Once part of the 'golden triangle of attacking talent' at Old Trafford alongside Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, he became the 'Welcome to Manchester' poster boy (literally) for Manchester City just two years later.

作為跟C羅、魯尼共同組成老特拉福德球場「進攻天才金三角」的一員，僅僅兩年後，他就變成了曼城「歡迎來曼徹斯特」海報的(實際意義上的)。

Wonder if he'll be getting a birthday card from both sides of Manchester this year?

不知道今年他會不會在曼徹斯特兩支球隊手上都拿到生日卡片？

Tevez played for seven years in the Premier League特維斯在英超效力了七年

Gheorghe Hagi, 55 

喬治哈吉，2020年滿55歲

Former Barcelona, Real Madrid and Steaua Bucharest playmaker Gheorghe Hagi is widely regarded as Romania's greatest ever player.

前巴薩、皇馬、布加勒斯特星隊的組織核心喬治哈吉，以羅馬尼亞史上最佳足球員的身份廣為人知。

With 124 appearances for his country between 1983 and 2000, some might argue he deserves a national holiday in his honour.

橫跨1983~2000年為國家隊上陣的124場比賽，有些人會為了他的榮譽值不值得一個國定假日而掀起爭論。

Now owner and manager of Romanian club Viitorul Constanta, he'll always be remembered for a stunning strike for his country in their 3-1 win over Colombia at USA '94.

如今，他是羅馬尼亞球會康斯坦塔未來的老闆跟教練，而他將永遠銘記，1994美國世界盃，他為他的國家打入3-1淘汰哥倫比亞的銷魂進球。

He might be visiting Britain this year, as his son Ianis has just joined Rangers on loan from Genk.

他今年可能會造訪不列顛，因為他的兒子伊恩斯才從根特被租借到格拉斯哥流浪者隊。

Gheorghe Hagi is the owner and manager of Romanian club Viitorul Constanta
喬治哈吉，現在是羅馬尼亞球會康斯坦塔未來的老闆跟教練。

From Romania, to Sheffield...

從羅馬尼亞，到雪菲爾德聯...

Billy Sharp, 34 
比利夏普，2020年滿34歲

The Sheffield United striker is next on the list of people who share a 5 February birthday. Yes, the list is still going.

這位雪菲爾德聯的進攻手，是下一個共享2月5日生日的人，是的，名單還在延續中。

Last week, Sharp played a role in the side's transfer announcement when the Blades confirmed the club record signing of Sander Berge from Genk.

上一週，當飛刀確認從根特歷史性地簽下山德斯伯格時，夏普扮演著雪菲爾德聯方面，公布轉會訊息的一員角色。

Here he is playing a game of 'Honesty Cards' with team-mate John Fleck (and he does a good impression of another team-mate).

而他在這裡跟他的隊友約翰佛列克玩著一個叫「誠實卡」的遊戲(而他對另一個隊友也有著好的影響力)。

And we're not finished there, it's 'Sven, Sven, Sven'....

未完待續，接下來是「斯文、斯文、斯文」...

Sven-Goran Eriksson, 72
斯文-約蘭·艾瑞克森，2020年滿72歲

(Perez譯註：2024年8月26日，因胰臟癌逝世於故鄉瑞典韋姆蘭省孫訥，享年76歲)

The former England manager celebrates his 72nd birthday on 5 February.

前英格蘭教練在2月5號，度過了他的72歲生日。

Responsible for taking the Three Lions to the quarter-finals of the 2002 and 2006 World Cups and Euro 2004, as well taking charge of Benfica, Lazio, Manchester City and Leicester, to name just a few, in a 43-year coaching career.

他扛起了帶著三獅軍團在2002、2006年世界盃、2004年歐洲盃到八強賽的責任，並且在他43年的教練光景，簡單列幾個，就是本菲卡、拉齊奧、曼城、萊斯特城等級的執教任務。

Happy birthday, boss.

生日快樂呀，老大。

Eriksson managed England from 2000 to 2006 and had David Beckham as his captain throughout that period艾瑞克森掌管了2000-2006年的英格蘭隊，並任命大衛貝克漢作為該時期的隊長。

And even now, that's not all. Inter Milan's Stefan de Vrij, ex-Arsenal and Barcelona midfielder Giovanni van Bronckhorst, former Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj, Sheffield Wednesday's Jordan Rhodes and ex-Tottenham defender Vedran Corluka all celebrate their birthdays on 5 February.

而即便列到現在，還是不能盡列。國際米蘭的史帝芬德福里、前阿森納、巴薩隆納中場喬瓦尼·范布隆克霍斯特、曾是曼城邊鋒的阿南賈努札伊、雪菲爾得星期三的約翰羅德，跟前托特納姆熱刺後衛韋德蘭·喬爾盧卡，都一同在2月5號生日。

So if you're ever asked to pick a five-a-side using people who were born on your birthday, and your birthday is today, you've probably won.

所以如果你被要求，要用跟你同一天生日的球星，組一支五人制足球對，並且你是今天生日的話，你將勝券在握。
