Taken on 14th May 1966 at Wembley Stadium, the image showcases the FA Cup final between Everton and Sheffield Wednesday. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the ball, perfectly positioned on the center spot of the pitch, awaiting that crucial kick-off. The composition exudes a sense of stillness as time stands still before this monumental clash begins. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on this pivotal object - an emblematic symbol representing unity, competition, and passion for the beautiful game.
