EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in English football history. The intense clash between Arsenal and West Ham United at Highbury Stadium resulted in a 2-1 victory for the home team. However, what truly sets this match apart is the significant milestone it marked. During this all-London encounter, Arsenal made a groundbreaking substitution that would forever be etched in football's annals. Brendan Batson was brought onto the pitch as a substitute, making him the fourth black player on field at that time. This remarkable occurrence represented the first instance ever recorded in a first division match where four black players shared the same stage. The significance of this event cannot be overstated, as it symbolizes progress and diversity within English football during April 1972. Both teams contributed to this historical moment, with West Ham also fielding their three talented black stars: Clyde Best, Ade Coker, and Clive Charles. This powerful image from Mirrorpix encapsulates not only an exciting sporting contest but also serves as a testament to breaking barriers and embracing inclusivity within one of England's most beloved sports. It stands as an enduring reminder of how far we have come and how much further we can go towards creating an equal playing field for all athletes regardless of race or background.
