English term or phrase: Good Luck
I'm working on a project about the World Cup and we're getting pictures and short text together to create a poster. I'd like to know how do you say 'Good Luck' in Arabic for us to assemble it on our poster. Thank you.

好运来!
Explanation:
好运来! means good luck is coming!

The two of my colleagues have given the most acceptable and nearly standard translations of this phrase. But as for using on a poster for World Cup, I feel 好运来! sound more exciting.

I appriciate your preparing a Chinese version of your posters. You may know that it is the first time Chinese team will play in this game. Most of the Chinese people are excited and wish the time for Chinese team will come.

This is Chinese, not Arabic, as this is the English > Chinese language pair area.

Please direct your question to the English > Arabic area as well.
