Vuvuzelas have been kicked out of European competition after UEFA said that the plastic trumpets1 drowned out supporters and detracted from the emotion of the game.
欧洲足球协会联合会称塑料喇叭呜呜祖拉淹没了球迷的声音,并扰乱比赛情绪,因此呜呜祖拉将被禁止出现在欧足联比赛赛场。
The plastic horns became a hallmark of the World Cup in South Africa, producing a monotonous(单调的) droning(嗡嗡声的) sound which provided a backdrop for every match.
But they will not be allowed in stadiums in UEFA competitions such as the Champions League, Europa League and Euro 2012 qualifiers after UEFA's ruling on Wednesday.
"European football's governing body has informed its 53 member associations that it has taken the move for reasons related to Europe's football culture and tradition, saying that the atmosphere at matches would be changed by the sound of the vuvuzela," said UEFA in a statement.
"The World Cup was characterised by the vuvuzela's widespread and permanent use in the stands," it added.
"In the specific context of South Africa, the vuvuzela adds a touch of local flavour and folklore3(民间风俗) , but UEFA feels that the instrument's widespread use would not be appropriate in Europe, where a continuous loud background noise would be emphasised."
The statement then continued with a clear criticism of the controversial instrument.
"The magic of football consists of the two-way exchange of emotions between the pitch and the stands, where the public can transmit a full range of feelings to the players.
"However, UEFA is of the view that the vuvuzelas would completely change the atmosphere, drowning supporter emotions and detracting from(贬低,减损) the experience of the game.
"To avoid the risk of these negative effects in the stadiums where UEFA competitions are played and to protect the culture and tradition of football in Europe - singing, chanting etc. - UEFA has decided4 with immediate5 effect that vuvuzelas will not be allowed in the stadiums where UEFA competitions matches are played."
