EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to a historic moment in Manchester football history. It captures the intense rivalry between two iconic teams, Manchester City and Manchester United, during their encounter in 1955. The image freezes the precise instant when Manchester City's Don Revie leaps into the air, his eyes fixed on the ball as he powerfully heads towards goal. In that split second, hope fills his mind as he believes he has secured victory for his team. However, fate intervenes cruelly as the ball strikes the post with a resounding thud. In this nostalgic snapshot of an era long gone by, we witness another figure emerging from the shadows - Bill Foulkes of Manchester United. With lightning reflexes and determination etched across his face, Foulkes lunges forward to clear away any remnants of doubt lingering around their goal line. This photograph encapsulates not only a pivotal moment within this fierce derby match but also showcases the raw passion and skill displayed by these legendary footballers. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to this timeless image while evoking memories of past glory on muddy pitches. For sports enthusiasts or avid followers of football history, this print serves as a cherished memento that transports them back to an era where legends were born amidst roaring crowds and electric atmospheres.
