馬拉多納執教墨西哥乙級聯賽球隊

Argentine legend Diego Maradona described his decision to coach second-division Mexican club Dorados as a rebirth after years battling addictions, as he officially became the team's new manager last Monday.

近日，阿根廷傳奇人物迭戈·馬拉多納將自己執教墨西哥乙級俱樂部多拉多斯的決定形容爲重獲新生。在與毒癮抗爭多年之後，他於上週一正式成爲多拉多斯俱樂部的新經理。

Maradona has raised eyebrows with the decision to accept a job in the heart of Mexican drug cartel -- the rough-and-tumble state of Sinaloa.

馬拉多納曾因決定在混亂的錫那羅亞州的墨西哥販毒集團中工作，而令人驚訝不已。

But in his first press conference for Dorados, he described the job as a healthy new beginning after a long "sickness," alluding to his very public struggles with drug addiction, alcoholism and obesity.

但在他出席多拉多斯俱樂部的第一次新聞發佈會上，他將這份工作描述爲自己經歷了長期“疾病”後的一個新起點，暗指他在公衆面前與毒癮、酗酒和肥胖作鬥爭。

"I want to give Dorados what I lost when I was sick," he told the 200 journalists who packed the hotel conference room in Culiacan, the state capital.

他向聚集在該州首府庫利亞坎的酒店會議室的200名記者透露：“我想把我生病時失去的東西送給多拉多斯，”

"I was sick for 14 years. Now I want to see the sun, I want to go to bed at night. I never even used to go to bed. I didn't even know what a pillow was. That's why I accepted the offer from Dorados."

“我病了14年。現在我想看太陽，晚上想睡覺。我以前甚至沒真正睡過覺。我甚至不知道什麼是枕頭。這就是爲什麼我接受了多拉多斯的報價。”

Mexico was the scene of Maradona's greatest triumph as a player: He led Argentina to the 1986 World Cup title there.

墨西哥是馬拉多納作爲球員取得最大成功的地方：他在那兒率領阿根廷隊贏得了1986年世界盃的冠軍。

But he surprised the soccer world with his decision to coach a second-division team who are currently in 13th place in their 15-team league.

但他決定執教一支目前在15支球隊中排名第13位的乙級球隊，這也讓足球界大吃一驚。
