The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Mike Egerton, transports us back to the FA Carling Premiership season 2000-01, a time when the stakes were high, and every game was a battle. The scene unfolds at the Riverside Stadium, where the atmosphere was electric as Middlesbrough and Coventry City clashed in a hard-fought encounter. Fleming, known for his tenacity and unyielding determination on the pitch, is seen here tackling Hadji with all his might. The Coventry City midfielder, a skilled playmaker, tries to evade Fleming's grasp, but the Middlesbrough defender's focus and strength prove too much. The intensity of the tackle is matched only by the expressions on the players' faces. Fleming's grit and determination are evident in his clenched jaw and focused gaze, while Hadji's determination and surprise are clear in his wide-eyed expression. The crowd roars in the background, adding to the electric atmosphere that surrounds the players. This image encapsulates the raw emotion and physicality of football during this era.
