EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1984/1985 UEFA Cup, we witness a thrilling encounter between Queens Park Rangers (QPR) and FK Partizan. The match took place at Highbury Stadium due to UEFA's disapproval of QPR's artificial pitch at Loftus Road. Simon Stainrod, representing QPR, engages in an intense battle with Vermezovic from Partizan Belgrade. Although QPR had a significant advantage after their resounding 6-2 victory in the first leg, fate had different plans for them. Despite their best efforts, they were ultimately eliminated from the competition when Partizan delivered an astonishing comeback in the second leg, defeating QPR by a staggering 4-0 scoreline. This photograph captured by Colorsport's talented photographer Alan Walter transports us back to that memorable evening on October 24th, 1984. It encapsulates both the determination and disappointment etched on the faces of these footballers as they fought tooth and nail for victory. Beyond its sporting significance lies a tale of resilience and unpredictability within football competitions. This image serves as a reminder that even seemingly insurmountable leads can be overturned through sheer determination and skillful play. As we gaze upon this historic moment frozen in time, let us appreciate not only the intensity of this particular match but also celebrate the spirit of competition that makes football such an enthralling sport worldwide.
