北京時間10月13日凌晨，中國國家隊在漢堡AOL球場同德國隊進行了一場友誼賽，中國隊整體表現(xiàn)可圈可點，策動出了數(shù)次威脅攻勢，但德國隊利用點球機會在第51分鐘打入制勝球，最終中國隊客場0-1遺憾失利。報道如下：

The goal visibly lifted Germany and they dominated proceedings but China rattled the post in the 76th minute. But there was noequalizerfor China who have failed to qualify for the World Cup finals and must now concentrate on hosting the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.

報道中的equalizer指的是"足球中的扳平比分的得分"。Equalizer在電學中還可以指"均衡器"。動詞equalize可表示"使相等"、"扳平比賽"。如：The company tries to equalize the responsibilities of the staff members (公司試圖讓工作人員承擔相同的責任。)
