Two central midfield players and a right and a left winger.B：是的。两个中前卫，左右边锋各一个。A：That just leaves two players if my math is correct.A：要是我没算错的话，就只剩下两名队员了。B：It is.

If a player scores three goals in a match then that is called a hattrick.B：嗯，队员靠进球来得分。如果在一场比赛中，一名队员进了两个球，就叫做“梅开二度”，要是进了三个球，则被叫做“帽子戏法”。A：Why is it called that？A：为什么这么叫啊？B：Apparently in the old days before players were paid， if they scored three goals then a hat was passed round the crowd who contributed some money and then it was given to the player.B：在早些时候，球员并没有酬劳，要是他能够在比赛中射进三个球，人们就会在观众席中传递一个帽子，在里面放钱，送给进球的球员。
