这只猫跑到了禁区，中断了周一晚上的一场足球比赛

There aren’t many things more American than, well, American football. It combines the passion for sports, exciting commentary and a sense of unity over favorite teams. Oh, and from last Monday, we can also add cheering over a stray feline to the list.

没有什么比美式足球更具有美国特色的了。它结合了对体育的热情，激动人心的评论和对喜欢的球队的团结感。哦，从上周一开始，我们还可以为一只流浪猫喝彩。

During a Monday Night Football match between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, one black cat offered the purr-fect entertainment for the crowd in the stadium, as well as those watching at home. The naughty critter decided to go for a touchdown during the second quarter, much to the dismay of the state troopers chasing it and amusement of everyone observing the incident.

在周一晚上纽约巨人队和达拉斯牛仔队的橄榄球比赛中，一只黑猫为球场上的观众和那些在家观看的观众提供了完美的娱乐。这只淘气的小动物决定在第二节触地得分，这让追逐它的州警们很沮丧，也让所有观察这一事件的人感到好笑。

According to Madelyn Burke, a broadcaster, the kitty is likely one of the many strays living at the stadium. “They usually come out after the game, people feed them, etc.” she reported. As the stray cats live in the bleachers, this one most likely got frightened by the fan noise and panicked.

据一位名叫玛德琳·伯克的播音员说，这只猫咪可能是住在体育场的众多流浪猫之一。“它们通常在比赛结束后出来，人们喂它们，等等，”她说。由于这些流浪猫生活在露天看台上，这只流浪猫很可能被风扇的噪音吓到了，惊慌失措。

As some people expressed concern over the cat’s safety and health after quite a stressful chase, MetLife Stadium representatives were quick to offer reassurances. “Once we locate and safely capture the cat, we will take it to a veterinarian for examination,” they said on the stadium’s Twitter account.

在经历了一场紧张的追逐后，一些人对这只猫的安全与健康表示了担忧，大都会人寿保险公司的代表很快做出了保证。他们在体育馆的推特账户上说:“一旦我们找到并安全捕获这只猫，我们将把它带到兽医那里检查。”

The match ended with a score of 37-18 as the Cowboys snatched the victory. People on Twitter were quick to speculate if the black cat had any influence over the end score. Others just shared various memes and jokes about the cat as everyone on the social media platform had a good time.

这场比赛以37比18的比分结束，牛仔队大获全胜。推特上的人们很快猜测这只黑猫是否对最终比分有影响。其他人只是分享了关于这只猫的各种表情包和笑话，因为社交媒体平台上的每个人都玩得很开心。
