Italian term or phrase: km. da fermo
Rieccomi di nuovo, lo so, sono un vero tormento ma non è colpa mia se mi si chiede di tradurre parole ed concetti di cui a malapena conosco il significato in italiano!

Tanto per cominciare: CICLISMO-KM DA FERMO. Non esiste contesto poichè devo tradurre un elenco puntato di discipline sportive e l'a stringa si presenta così come l'ho riproposta a voi. Ho cercato ovunque ma so per certo che voi saprete spulciare internet meglio di me. In un attimo di nervosisimo ho scritto un semplice "Cycling" per poi pentirmene quasi subito dato che la distinzione deve risultare esplicita e ben chiara.

Altro motivo di crisi è la preposizione da usare nelle seguenti occorrenze:
-1 scudetto con la Sampdoria
-2 Coppe delle Coppe con la Sampdoria e con il Chelsea
-Vialli ha conquistato la Champions giocando con la Juventus

play with/play for/play at, mai fui più insicura (tranne che negli ultimi due interventi!)

Thank you
Melissa Storti

I should have used the British spelling "kilometre" since it is littled used in the U.S.
