EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Colorsport Images, we see Johnny Carey, a prominent member of the FAI Ireland XI football team, standing confidently before a game at Goodison Park. The photograph dates back to the 1949/1950 season when England faced off against the Dublin-based FAI XI. This match held significant historical value as it marked only the second time that the FAI XI had played against England. Unlike their counterparts from Northern Ireland who participated in the Home Championship, this Dublin-based team rarely got an opportunity to compete on such a grand stage. However, they made sure to leave a lasting impact. The game ended with an astonishing victory for the visiting Irish side – a remarkable feat considering no non-UK team had ever beaten England on their home turf before. This triumph not only showcased the talent and determination of players like Johnny Carey but also shattered long-standing records and expectations. Colorsport Images has expertly preserved this momentous occasion through their exceptional photo print. It serves as a testament to both individual skill and collective achievement within Irish football history. As viewers gaze upon this image, they are transported back in time to witness firsthand how one man's passion for his sport can inspire an entire nation and etch his name into sporting folklore forevermore.
