World Cup Talk

knockout round

淘汰赛

(táotàisài )

A: The FIFA World Cup knockout round is just around the corner.

很快就到世界杯淘汰赛阶段了。

(hěnkuài jiù dào shìjièbēi táotàisài jiēduàn le.)

B: There are too many matches to watch, I don't have the time to watch them all.

要看的比赛太多,我都看不过来。

(yào kàn de bǐsài tài duō,wǒ dōu kàn bù ɡuòlái.)
