Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur, FA Charity Shield at Old Trafford. Score 3 - 3.
Picture shows Bobby Charlton booked for NOT taking a free kick - he refused because he thought two Spurs players were not ten yards from the ball. Here a sad Charlton (far left) stands with head down after the booking as United players dispute the referees decision as Denis Law bangs the ball down for the kick to be re-taken, as George Best offers his opinion. Nobby Stiles makes his feelings obvious. The two Spurs players Mackay (number 6) and Terry Venebles (number 10) are not the right. Jimmy Greaves is 2nd left standing next to Bobby Charlton.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the intense battle between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Charity Shield at Old Trafford. The scoreboard reads 3-3, a testament to the thrilling nature of this match. However, it is not the scoreline that steals our attention but rather a moment captured on film that showcases both frustration and determination. In the foreground stands Bobby Charlton, one of Manchester United's legendary players, with his head bowed down in disappointment. He has just been booked for refusing to take a free kick as he believed two Spurs players were not positioned ten yards away from the ball. His teammates surround him, passionately disputing the referee's decision while Denis Law forcefully bangs the ball down for a re-take. Amidst this heated scene, George Best can be seen offering his opinion while Nobby Stiles makes his discontent evident through his body language. On the opposite side of Charlton stands Jimmy Greaves next to him, sharing in his frustrations. The year is 1967, an era when football was played with raw passion and unwavering dedication. This photograph encapsulates not only a specific moment in time but also represents an emblematic clash between two powerhouse teams vying for victory. R Sprencer's skillful capture allows us to relive this historic event from Memory Lane Prints and transports us back into football history where emotions ran high on that fateful day at Old Trafford.
