(English) Premier League

(anglická) Premier League, nejvyšší fotbalová soutěž v Anglii

Dennis is still a premier league player and I'm sure he will want to demonstrate that. Google

Said Aouita, the highly versatile Moroccan distance runner, was there to attempt to beat the world 300 metre record. BNCB

Sally Barsosio, a 26-year-old Kenyan long distance runner, is an early bird. Google

Perhaps the greatest recent insult was the Nike sponsorship of Philip Boit, the Kenyan distance runner who decided to cross country ski. Google

(relay) baton

štafetový kolík; kolík

The winner of the women’s individual 400m title, both this year and last, Natalya Nazarova of Russia took over the relay baton from her team-mates so far ahead of the seven pursuing teams that the women’s 4x400m relay was more of a time trial than a race. Google

First runner runs on inside of lane and holds baton in right hand, second runner runs on outside of lane and holds baton in left hand etc. Google 

The key to good relay baton exchange is to ensure that the baton is exchanged safely at or very close to the maximum speed of the two athletes involved. Google

(starting) grid

startovní rošt

The starting grid will be set in a 1 by 1 staggered formation, according to the best lap times attained by each car during the qualifying sessions. Google

On Saturday Leeds burgled an equaliser through Chris Fairclough 45 seconds into added time to protect an 18-month unbeaten run at Elland Road. BNCB

With the game going into added time Michael Galwey, after good work by Geoghegan, Clarke and Bradley, got in for an Irish try. BNCB

We've had a couple of stoppages in the first half, not the sort that will give us the nine minutes of added time we had at Highbury on Saturday, but certainly a minute or two this evening. BNCB

Alpine skiing

Alpské lyžování

Alpine skiing evolved from cross-country skiing. Google

The first alpine skiing competition, a primitive downhill, was held in the 1850s in Oslo. Google

Alpine skiing became part of the Olympic programme at the 1936 Garmisch-Partenkirchen Games with a men's and ladies combined event. Google

American football

Americký fotbal

Add the fact that the dominating sport, American football, venerates the combination of meticulous planning with the sudden

anchor leg

poslední úsek (štafety, závodu); finiš

Scotsman Elliot Bunney, Dale Thompson, Mike McFarlane, and me on the anchor leg. BNCB

Lewis, who swelled his incredible haul of Olympic golds to eight with a fantastic anchor leg in Saturday's 4 x 100 metres world record performance from the Americans, said: "I won't dodge Linford." BNCB

However, Alsgaard will be best known for his tremendous anchor leg performances in the Relay. Google

anchor runner

poslední člen/ka štafety; finišman/ka

The third runner must attempt to set up the anchor runner for good race position in which he or she can perform their best. Google

She caught French anchor runner Christine Arron, but could not get close to Debbie Ferguson of the Bahamas or Merlene Ottey of Jamaica. Google

The last leg, the anchor leg, is called the "glory leg" by many veterans of this race because the anchor runner is the one who gets to finish up the race at the end of the day by running through the town of Galconda towards that long finish line. Google

assisting wind

vítr v zádech

A heavy assisting wind (+2.8m/s) and a superb last 60 metres by American champion Kelli White brought some very fast times in the women’s 100m and also ended the US$ 1 million Golden League Jackpot hopes of Bahamian Chandra Sturrup. Google

The men's 100-m final was run with a +0.2 m/s assisting wind (w), whereas in the women's final, w = +0.4 m/s. Google

Over speed can be done by running down a very slight slope, running with an assisting wind or by being towed. Google

at home

na domácím hřišti; doma

Should City defeat Scarborough at home on Saturday, then they will be crowned as Conference champions. Google

Stars stay unbeatable at home. Google

Manchester United lost at home to Liverpool today and wait for tomorrow-s North London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham to see if Arsenal can come within three points of United to leave the Championship race wide open. Google

attacking zone

útočné pásmo

Offside occurs when when an offensive player crosses the blue line into the attacking zone before the puck. Google

Sopel's been very effective for the Canucks of late(funny what he can do when he doesn't make boneheaded plays day in and day out), and he continues to show his usefulness on the Canucks power play, as he is quite possibly the best Canuck on the blueline at holding the puck in the attacking zone. Google

They have 6 players with 30 + points which is a great sign of how well this team is playing in the attacking zone. Google

automatic transmission

automatická převodovka

If you have ever driven a car with an automatic transmission, then you know that there are two big differences between an automatic transmission and a manual transmission. Google

By pure chance it turns out that the way an automatic transmission does it is absolutely amazing! Google

nesestoupit, vyhnout se sestupu; nespadnout

Spurs are almost certain to avoid relegation but their heaviest defeat was even harder for their fans to accept because they were 2-0 up after 13 minutes. BNCB

A draw was all that either team needed in order to avoid relegation. BNCB
