Great moment captured in this print from the 2016/17 season opener between Preston North End and Queens Park Rangers (QPR) at Deepdale Stadium on August 20, 2016. The excitement was palpable in the air as both teams took to the pitch, each determined to start the season with a victory. In this image, we see Preston North End's number 11, Joe Garner, leaping high above the QPR defense to head the ball towards the goal. The crowd roars in anticipation, hands clasped over their eyes or leaning forward in their seats, as they watch the action unfold. The QPR goalkeeper, Alex Smithies, dives to try and save the goal, but it's a futile effort as the ball sails over him and into the net. Garner's goal in the 18th minute put Preston North End in the lead, and they went on to win the match 3-1. The victory was a morale-boosting start to the season for the team, who had been promoted to the Championship the previous year. The atmosphere in the stadium was electric, with both sets of fans creating a cacophony of noise throughout the match. The sun was setting over Deepdale, casting a warm glow over the pitch and adding to the sense of occasion. This print is a reminder of an exciting moment in Preston North End's history and a testament to the passion and energy that surrounds football matches. It's a moment that fans of both teams will remember for years to come. Dave Kendall captured this moment perfectly, freezing the action and allowing us to relive the thrill of the game long after the final whistle had blown. This print is a must-have for any Preston North End fan or football enthusiast.
