EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 1969, we are transported back to a thrilling football match between Manchester United and Stoke City. The image captures the intense moment when Alex Stepney, the Manchester United goalkeeper, is beaten by a powerful shot from Skeels. As the ball finds its way into the net, there is an explosion of joy on the face of Herd, one of Stepney's teammates. However, amidst the jubilation, disappointment quickly follows as Herd's celebration is cut short by an offside ruling. In this split second captured by the lens, Denis Law can be seen pointing out this decision to the referee. The expressions on their faces tell a story of frustration and disbelief. This photograph encapsulates both the highs and lows that come with being part of such a passionate sport like football. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of triumph or despair, there is always something unpredictable waiting just around the corner. As we gaze upon this vintage snapshot from Mirrorpix's collection on Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded not only of iconic sporting moments but also how photography has preserved these timeless memories for us to cherish and reflect upon decades later.
