Hi there,

South Africans as a nation are Soccer mad so we see photos every day in every newspaper.......soooooo tiring.
But this photo is something else mate!...... WOW,what an incredible photo!

Firstly, and most obviously, the way the two players each have an arm at the exact opposing angle to each other.
At a quick glance the unity of the two players could form a bird in flight.
And for me this is what makes the photo.

The fact that there is aggression and concentration captured on both faces, and the way the intensity is put in context by the presence of the line and the linesman,makes for an incredibly intense photo.

Submit it to a sports , action competition, if you don't winI will eat my hat!

Maybe a classic scene, but there's nothing ordinary in the picture. Great action shot and welcome to the club.
