Great moment captured in time: Alexander Hleb's opening goal for Birmingham City against Blackpool (04-01-2011) In the thrilling world of football, every goal scored holds a unique story and creates a moment of excitement for fans. One such goal that left an indelible mark on Birmingham City Football Club's history was the opening goal scored by their Belarusian midfielder, Alexander Hleb, against Blackpool on January 4, 2011, at Bloomfield Road. The Barclays Premier League match was a crucial one for Birmingham City, who were fighting against relegation. The team's morale was high, and the players were determined to secure three points against their opponents. Hleb, a former Arsenal and Barcelona player, was a valuable addition to the squad, and his experience and skill were much needed in the tough league. As the game progressed, the tension mounted, and both teams were evenly matched. However, it was Birmingham City who broke the deadlock in the 37th minute. Hleb received the ball from a corner kick, took a few touches, and unleashed a powerful shot from just outside the penalty area. The ball flew past the Blackpool goalkeeper, leaving him rooted to the spot, and gave Birmingham City a well-deserved lead. The goal was a testament to Hleb's class and skill, and it lifted the spirits of the Birmingham City players and fans alike. The team went on to win the match 2-1, and the three points were a significant boost to their survival bid. Barrington Coombs, the talented photographer, captured this moment perfectly in his photo print. The image of Hleb celebrating his goal with his teammates is a reminder of the excitement and passion that football brings to fans, and it is a moment that Birmingham City supporters will never forget.
