Before the World Cup began, Italy's Mario Balotelli said that he didn't see England winning the tournament. He helped prove that widely held belief correct by scoring the winning goal in Italy's opening match against them and the Three Lions have now followed that with a loss to Uruguay, leaving them to pull up the rear in Group D with zero points.

據(jù)雅虎新聞網(wǎng)報道，意大利球員巴洛特利（Mario Balotelli）賽前表示自己未曾見過英格蘭問鼎世界杯。在意大利與英格蘭的開幕戰(zhàn)上巴洛特利表現(xiàn)神勇，而號稱三獅軍團的英格蘭隊卻負于烏拉圭隊，在D組積分墊底。

England need to win their final match againstCosta Rica, but first they need Costa Rica to lose to Italy. So Balotelli has tweeted a special request related to such an event.

英格蘭務必要贏下哥斯達黎加才有望出線，而在此之前，哥斯達黎加還得先輸給意大利。于是，在巴洛特利的推特上就有了這樣一條特殊的推文。

要是我們（意大利）贏了哥斯達黎加，我想要英國女王吻我，吻我面頰就好。
