EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the intense rivalry between two rugby greats, Martin Johnson of England and Victor Costello of Ireland, during the Five Nations Championship match between the two teams in 1998. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Andy Hooper for The Mail newspapers, depicts the pivotal moment when the two players lock horns in a fierce head-to-head contest. The Five Nations Championship, now known as the Six Nations Championship, is an annual international rugby union competition involving the teams of England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, and Wales. This particular encounter between England and Ireland was a highly anticipated fixture, with both teams vying for supremacy in the tournament. Martin Johnson, the England captain and second row forward, was a formidable figure on the pitch, known for his leadership, strength, and tenacity. Costello, the Irish flanker, was equally respected for his skill, determination, and ability to disrupt opposition attacks. The head-to-head clash between these two players encapsulates the physical and mental battle that unfolds during a rugby match. The black-and-white photograph, part of The Northcliffe Collection, transports us back to a time when rugby was played with unyielding passion and unwavering commitment. The image serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these two rugby legends and the iconic moments that defined their careers.
