I'm not claiming that football is the nation's salvation in this area, but it's one of them, one little thing that apparently has captured the imagination of a large sector of our society. But when football can't be a relatively pure outlet, a fun thing, then it hurts itself.

我并不是说足球是这个国家在这个领域的救星，但它是其中之一，一件小事，显然已经吸引了我们社会很大一部分人的想象力。但当足球不能成为一种相对纯粹的发泄方式、一件有趣的事情时，它就会伤害自己。
