Great photo capturing a historic moment in Coventry City Football Club's history: George Boateng's double during the FA Carling Premiership match against Aston Villa on February 27,1999, at Villa Park. Boateng's second goal, Coventry City's fourth, secured a shocking 4-3 victory over their bitter rivals, a result that helped the Sky Blues avoid relegation that season. In the image, Boateng is seen celebrating with his teammate and captain, Gary McAllister, after scoring the goal. The jubilation on their faces reflects the significance of the victory, not only for the team but also for the fans. The atmosphere at Villa Park that day was electric, with both sets of supporters creating a cacophony of noise, making it a memorable occasion for all involved.
