LONDON, Sept 16 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Andy Burnham is expected to host his Canadian counterpart Mark Carney at a soccer match on Wednesday, giving the leaders a chance to bond over their shared affection for Everton, one of England's most historic clubs.
Burnham became prime minister in July, and in his first call with Carney two days later promised to "roll out the blue carpet" — a reference to Everton's blue kit — and host the Canadian premier at a game.

伦敦，9 月 16 日（路透社）——英国首相安迪·伯纳姆预计将于周三在足球比赛现场接待加拿大首相马克·卡尼，这将使两位领导人有机会通过他们对英格兰最古老的俱乐部之一埃弗顿的共同热爱来增进感情。
伯纳姆于 7 月就任总理，两天后，他在与卡尼的第一次通话中承诺“铺开蓝地毯”（指的是埃弗顿队的蓝色球衣），并邀请这位加拿大总理观看比赛。
