In this evocative photograph, Everton's Leighton Baines is seen in action during the testimonial match for Keith Southern at Bloomfield Road, between Everton and Blackpool in the pre-season of the 2012-13 campaign. Southern, a former Everton player, was being honored with a testimonial match to celebrate his long and distinguished career in football. Baines, a key member of the Everton squad at the time, was in fine form as he took to the pitch against Blackpool. The left-back, known for his exceptional crossing ability and dead-ball expertise, is seen here in the act of delivering a pinpoint cross into the Blackpool penalty area, with the Everton fans in the background eagerly anticipating the outcome. The testimonial match provided an opportunity for fans to pay tribute to Southern, who had made over 200 appearances for the Toffees between 2004 and 2009. It was also an opportunity for the current Everton squad to show their support for their former teammate and to get some valuable pre-season minutes under their belts. Baines, who had joined Everton in 2007, was a popular figure among the fans and was a key player in the team's successes during this period. His precise and accurate delivery from set-pieces was a major threat to opposition defenses, and his versatility and consistency made him a valuable asset to the team. This photograph captures a moment of excitement and anticipation during the testimonial match, with Baines at the heart of the action. It is a reminder of the special bond between players and fans, and the importance of celebrating the careers of those who have given their all to the beautiful game.
