Russia's hopes for a successful FIFA World Cup campaign suffered a serious blow with captain Roman Shirokov ruled out because he has failed to recover from a knee ligament injury.

俄羅斯希望在世界杯賽場上取得成功，然而隊長羅曼·希羅科夫卻因膝蓋韌帶傷勢未愈無緣比賽，這讓俄羅斯的世界杯之夢很受傷。

Russia coach Fabio Capello said the 32-year-old midfielder, scorer of 12 goals in 41 international appearances since making his debut in 2008, will have to undergo knee surgery in Finland next week.

據國際足聯官網消息，俄羅斯主帥法比奧·卡佩羅表示，希羅科夫將在芬蘭接受手術。希羅科夫32歲，司職中場，在其2008年首秀以來的41場國際比賽中進球12個。

"On Monday Shirokov will fly to Finland to undergo knee surgery there," Capello told a news conference after the 2-0 win over Morocco in their World Cup warm up match.

“周一，希羅科夫將乘飛機前往芬蘭，并在那兒接受膝關節手術，”卡佩羅在記者招待會上說。這場招待會是在俄羅斯2:0贏得與摩洛哥的世界杯熱身賽后舉行的。

"Shirokov is a very important member of Russia's squad but I hope that the rest of the players will be able to perform at their best level in Brazil anyway."

“雖然希羅科夫是俄國隊的一員大將，但我希望其他隊員能夠在巴西表現出最佳狀態。”

Capello, who has guided Russia to their first World Cup finals since 2002, said Rubin Kazan midfielder Pavel Mogilevets will replace Shirokov in the squad.

2002年俄羅斯首次亮相世界杯。這次是俄羅斯隊由卡佩羅帶領，再次入圍世界杯決賽圈。他說俄超喀山魯賓隊的中場球員帕維爾·莫吉列維茨（Pavel Mogilevets）將代替希羅科夫出場。

"Mogilevets will replace Shirokov in our squad but we still have time before 15 June to make final changes in the squad's line-up," he said.

“莫吉列維茨將替代希羅科夫在場上的位置，但在6月15日的預演賽開始前，我們還有時間做出最后調整，”他說。

Shirokov suffered the injury in April in the Russian Premier League match between FC Krasnodar, where he has been on loan from Zenit St. Petersburg, and Lokomotiv Moscow.

四月俄超聯賽開戰，希羅科夫在卡拉斯諾達爾對戰莫斯科火車頭的比賽中受傷的。希羅科夫是卡拉斯諾達爾向圣彼得堡澤尼特租借的球員。

He missed both of the tune-up matches with Slovakia and Norway but was able to train with the rest of the squad on Thursday before suffering a relapse.

希羅科夫錯過了與斯洛伐克和挪威隊的世界杯預演賽，但可以在傷病復發前，同其他球員一起參加周四的訓練。

Capello, who will be bidding to improve on his 2010 showing with England where he took them to the last 16, said his team would play one more warm-up match, against Sao Paulo state champions Ituano on 11 June.

卡佩羅曾帶領英格蘭隊打入16強，這次他力爭取得更好成績。他說6月11日俄羅斯隊還有一場與巴西圣保羅州錦標賽球隊伊圖亞諾的熱身賽。

Russia will open their World Cup campaign against Korea Republic on 18 June.

俄羅斯隊將于6月18日對陣韓國，從而開啟世界杯之旅。

Capello's side have been drawn in Group H alongisde Belgium and Algeria.

與俄羅斯同在H組的還有比利時和阿爾及利亞兩只球隊。
