EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photograph captured by Colorsport Images, we witness the intense moment when Elton Flatley, representing Australia, lines up a crucial kick during the 2003 World Cup Final. The match, held at Telstra Stadium (now known as Stadium Australia) in Sydney, Australia, was an electrifying clash between England and Australia that would go down in rugby union history. With his eyes fixed on the target and determination etched across his face, Flatley's poised stance exudes confidence and focus. As he prepares to strike the ball with precision and power, every spectator holds their breath in anticipation of the outcome that could potentially decide the fate of both teams. The significance of this particular kick cannot be overstated; it took place during extra time when tensions were running high. The scoreline stood at a nail-biting 17-17 deadlock between England and Australia. This single kick had immense pressure riding on it - a successful conversion would tilt victory towards Flatley's team while a miss could dash their hopes entirely. This image encapsulates not only the skillful athleticism displayed by these world-class athletes but also showcases the raw emotions experienced during such high-stakes encounters. It serves as a timeless reminder of one of rugby union's most thrilling moments that ultimately saw England emerge triumphant with a narrow 20-17 victory over their Australian rivals after an exhilarating battle till the very end.
