EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the thrilling atmosphere of an International Friendly match at Wembley Stadium, where England faced off against Brazil on the 9th of May, 1956.

In this particular moment captured by Mirrorpix, we witness a breathtaking race for the ball between two football legends - England's Stanley Matthews and Brazil's Nilton Santos. Their determination and skill are palpable as they sprint towards their goal with unwavering focus. It is a clash of titans, showcasing not only their individual brilliance but also representing the fierce competition between these two great nations.
