Great moment in Everton history captured in this print as Yakubu Aiyegbeni scores the first goal for his new team, Everton Football Club, against Manchester City during the Barclays Premier League match at the City of Manchester Stadium on February 25,2008. The Nigerian international striker had only joined Everton in January 2008 from Middlesbrough and was eager to make an impact at his new club. The atmosphere was electric as the two Manchester rivals faced off in a highly anticipated league fixture. Everton fans were hopeful for a positive result against their city rivals, and Yakubu's goal in the 35th minute gave them just that. The goal came after a brilliant team move, with Leighton Baines providing the assist with a pinpoint cross from the left. Yakubu rose above the Manchester City defense to head the ball past goalkeeper Joe Hart and put Everton ahead. The goal was a significant one for Yakubu, who had previously scored against Manchester City while playing for Middlesbrough. But this time, he was wearing the blue and white of Everton, and the goal was a sign of things to come. Yakubu went on to score 11 goals in 17 appearances for Everton that season, helping them secure a respectable 11th place finish in the league. This print is a reminder of that memorable moment in Everton's history and a testament to Yakubu's impact on the team during his time at Goodison Park. It is a must-have for any Everton fan and a great addition to any football memorabilia collection.
