Cape Town, June 21 (DPA) Portugal took care of business in Group G of World Cup football with three goals in seven minutes and took a big step towards reaching the round of 16 while eliminating the Asians.

6月21日，世界杯小组赛G组，葡萄牙与朝鲜战于开普敦。葡萄牙凭借7分钟内连入3球，锁定胜局。在淘汰了朝鲜人的同时，葡萄牙人也向晋级16强迈进了一大步。

Knowing they still have to face Brazil in their group finale, Portugal booked their first victory in South Africa with Raul Meireles scoring the opener in the 29th minute. Simao made it 2-0 after 53 minutes and was followed by Hugo Almeida in the 56th.

葡萄牙队清楚，他们要在最后一轮小组赛对阵强大的巴西队，（因此他们把本场比赛当作了生死战。）第29分钟，梅雷莱斯首开纪录，为葡萄牙垫定胜局。第53分钟，西芒把比分改写为2-0。紧接着，阿尔梅达又在第56分钟再入一球。

Tiago scored twice at the Green Point Stadium in Cape Town. Substitute Liedson joined the scoring sheet in the 81st minute, and Cristiano Ronaldo also converted, ending an 11-game-goalless-streak dating back to February 2009.

在开普敦绿点球场内，蒂亚戈梅开二度。替补利德森也在第81分钟为球队建功。C罗也回归了，跳出了自2009年2月以来，连续11场在国家队比赛中不进球的怪圈。

The win gave Portugal four points in Group G, behind Brazil, who have already booked a final 16 spot with six points from two games. Ivory Coast have one point and North Korea are left on zero points and have been eliminated.

本场取胜后，葡萄牙在G组积4分，落后于巴西（凭借2场比赛全取6分，已经晋级16强。）。科特迪瓦积1分。朝鲜积0分，已被淘汰出局。

The margin of victory was also important for Portugal, who need only a draw against Brazil to advance and could advance still with a loss should Ivory Coast not beat North Korea convincingly.

凭借本场比赛的胜利，葡萄牙只需战平巴西就能晋级。本场的净胜球对葡萄牙队来说，意义也很大。因为一旦输给巴西，只要科特迪瓦不能大胜朝鲜，通过净胜球，葡萄牙队依然能够晋级。
