EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic photograph captures the thrilling moment when Royston Drenthe scored Everton's unforgettable goal against Norwich City on 17 December 2011, during the Barclays Premier League season 2011-12. The Dutch winger, wearing the number 14 jersey, is seen in mid-strike as he unleashes a powerful shot towards the Norwich goal. The ball is poised in mid-air, with Drenthe's foot extended and his body fully committed to the attempt. The goal came in the 35th minute of the match, which was played at Goodison Park. Everton were trailing 1-0 at the time, and the team was in desperate need of a morale-boosting moment. Drenthe's strike, which was set up by a clever pass from Leon Osman, provided just that. The goal was a thing of beauty, with the ball flying into the net in a graceful arc, leaving Norwich goalkeeper John Ruddy with no chance. The goal was a turning point in the match, as Everton went on to dominate the second half and secure a well-deserved 2-1 victory. Drenthe's strike was not only a crucial moment in the game, but it also highlighted his immense talent and potential. The Dutchman had only joined Everton a few months earlier, and this goal served as a reminder of the quality he brought to the team. This photograph, taken by renowned sports photographer Jon Buckle, captures the excitement and tension of the moment perfectly. The image is a testament to Drenthe's skill and determination, as well as the passion and intensity of Everton Football Club.
