昨晚看到第二集，Fiennes画外音读《Dear England》又把我看哭了[泪]总以为自己爱过的德意志“青春一代”和“童话一代”都退役谢幕后，已不会再轻易被打动，谁知一个不经意间还是能戳到心里那些已经淡去的一年又一年盛夏的回忆。

Southgate在2021年欧洲杯前夕写的致英格兰公开信《Dear England》一直不敢读第二遍。从来不是英格兰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿球迷，但不论支持哪国球队，球迷心底那层粗粝的情感是相通的。Southgate在信里写每届杯赛是关于球员的，关于奖杯和荣誉的，也是关于所有球迷的，是我们一代人共同记忆的载体。“You are part of an experience that lasts in the collective consciousness of our country, every game has the potential to create a lifelong memory for an England fan somewhere...You remember where you were watching England games, and who you were watching with, and who you were at the time…It’s about how we conduct ourselves on and off the pitch, how we bring people together, how we inspire and unite, how we create memories that last beyond the 90 minutes. That lasts beyond the summer. That lasts forever…It will be a summer to be proud of.”
还记得解说员贺炜，在2010南非世界杯的英德大战1-4结束后也曾说过类似的话： “…当我们老去时，坐在壁炉边，抱着自己的孙子给他讲世界杯的故事，一定不会错过这场八分之一决赛。” http://t.cn/AX6RVF1h
