bow out of 復習
サッカー元日本代表の本田圭佑選手が、新天地オーストラリアで記者会見を開きました。先日カンボジア代表の実質的な監督に就任することを発表したばかりで、本田選手ご本人も「プレッシャーを感じる」と会見で口にされていました。
MELBOURNE--Former Japan international Keisuke Honda has said he feels "pressure" to perform for new club Melbourne Victory after taking on a coaching role for the Cambodia national team.
Less than a week after announcing a season-long contract with Australian champions Victory, the 32-year-old midfielder was surprisingly unveiled as Cambodia's head coach and general manager on Sunday.
Although Honda agreed to coach without pay and is expected to do much of his work remotely via video conferences, the unusual arrangement was queried by Australian media.
中略
Honda, who became Japan's first player to score at three World Cups in Russia, bowed out of international soccer with 37 goals from 98 appearances.
Muscat said Honda had passed his physical but he would need to further assess the midfielder's fitness before deciding when to give him a debut.
Victory will play a round of 16 match in the domestic FFA Cup next Tuesday. They open their A-League season with a derby clash against Melbourne City on Oct. 20.

本日取り上げる表現はbow out ofです。
『ウィズダム英和辞典』(第2版)によると、「〈活動・仕事などから〉身を引く,退く;〈仕事などを〉辞退する」とありました。
また、LONGMAN Dictionary of Contemporary English (6th Edition)には、“to stop taking part in an activity, job etc, especially one that you have been doing for a long time”とありました。LONGMANの定義の最後に”for a long time”とあることから、「ある一定期間行ってきたことを辞める」際に使う表現だとわかりました。(Morihiro)
