Great moment of football history captured in this classic photograph from the FA Carling Premiership match between Aston Villa and Coventry City, dated February 27,1999, at Villa Park. The image showcases the jubilant celebration of Coventry City players George Boateng and Gary McAllister after Boateng scored his second goal in the game, making it Coventry's fourth. The atmosphere at Villa Park was electric as both teams fought for crucial points in the league standings.
