EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and passion of the Championship clash between Aston Villa and Preston North End, which took place on the 21st of January, 2017. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Dave Kendall during the 2016/17 season, portrays a pivotal moment in the match as Preston North End's players celebrate a hard-earned goal against their determined opponents. The atmosphere at Deepdale that day was electric, with both sets of fans creating a cacophony of noise that echoed around the stadium. The tension was palpable as two teams, each vying for promotion to the Premier League, went head-to-head. Aston Villa, once a storied club in English football, were facing a challenging season, having been relegated from the top flight the previous year. Preston North End, on the other hand, were riding high in the table, buoyed by their impressive form and the belief that they could mount a serious challenge for promotion. In this moment, the Preston North End players revel in their success, their jubilant expressions a testament to the hard work and determination that had brought them to this point. The contrasting emotions of elation and frustration are starkly evident, making this photograph a poignant reminder of the highs and lows of football. As the whistle blew for half-time, both teams retreated to the sanctity of their respective dressing rooms, each with their own thoughts and strategies to ponder. The second half of the game would bring more twists and turns, but for now, Preston North End could bask in the glory of their achievement and look forward to the challenges that lay ahead.
