EDITORS COMMENTS
In this electrifying image captured by photographer Adam Davy during the pre-season clash between Birmingham City and Real Sporting de Gijon in August 2009, the focus is on Kevin Phillips as he charges towards the opposition goal. The setting is St. Andrew's, the hallowed grounds of Birmingham City Football Club, where the excitement of the upcoming season was palpable in the air. Phillips, a veteran striker with an impressive career spanning over two decades, was in his second stint with Birmingham City, having previously played for the team between 1997 and 2000. His return to St. Andrew's in 2009 was met with great anticipation, as he was expected to bring his goalscoring prowess to bear on the team's campaign in the Championship. In this moment, Phillips is in full flight, chasing down a long ball that has been lofted towards him by a teammate. His determination and focus are evident in the set of his jaw, the intensity in his eyes, and the power in his strides. The opposing defender, caught off guard by Phillips' sudden burst of speed, is struggling to keep up. The crowd at St. Andrew's roars in approval, sensing that this could be the moment that sets the tone for the game. The tension in the air is electric, as both teams jostle for position and look to gain the upper hand. The outcome of this pre-season friendly may not have carried the weight of a league match, but for Phillips and Birmingham City, it was an opportunity to stake their claim for the season ahead. This photograph is a testament to the passion and commitment that defines football, and the thrill of the chase that keeps fans coming back for more. It is a reminder of the electrifying moments that can be created on the pitch, and the indelible impact that players like Kevin Phillips can have on the game.
