In the early stages of the 2009-10 Premier League season, Birmingham City traveled to Old Trafford for a highly anticipated match against Manchester United. The underdogs were determined to make an impact and hold their own against the reigning champions. In this image, Vignal, a French defender, is seen making a last-ditch tackle on Manchester United's star player, Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese superstar had already scored a goal in the first half, but Birmingham City's defense was holding strong, and Vignal's tenacity was a key factor in keeping the scoreline respectable.
