The crowd went wild as Everton lifted the European Cup Winners' Cup, marking the pinnacle of the club's European achievements to date. This photo by Joe Mann, taken during the match, immortalizes Sheedy's hat-trick and Everton's triumphant moment in European football history. The image is a testament to the team's determination, skill, and spirit, and remains a cherished memory for Everton fans around the world.
