Great photo capturing the intensity and passion of the UEFA Europa League clash between Birmingham City and Braga at St. Andrews Stadium in September 2011. In this image, Birmingham City's Marlon King (wearing the number 14 jersey) is shown being tackled by SC Braga's Ewerton Almeida (right). The two players are locked in a fierce battle for the ball, with King attempting to maintain possession while Almeida tries to regain control for his team. The UEFA Europa League, also known as the UEFA Europa Conference League until its renaming in 2021, is Europe's secondary club football competition, featuring teams that do not qualify for the UEFA Champions League. This Group H match between Birmingham City and Braga was a crucial encounter in the 2011-12 season, with both teams vying for a spot in the knockout stages. Marlon King, a striker for Birmingham City at the time, was a key player for the team, having scored three goals in the competition up to this point. Ewerton Almeida, a Brazilian midfielder for Braga, was known for his tenacity and defensive prowess. The tackle depicted in the photo showcases the physical demands and competitive nature of European football. The atmosphere at St. Andrews Stadium was electric, with both sets of fans creating a cacophony of noise that added to the excitement of the match. The result was a closely contested encounter that ended in a 1-1 draw, leaving both teams with work to do in the remaining group stage fixtures to secure their place in the knockout rounds. This photo by David Jones perfectly encapsulates the tension and drama of European football, making it a must-have for any Birmingham City or football enthusiast's collection.
