EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in Chelsea's Champions League match against Steaua Bucuresti on October 1,2013. In this image, Chelsea's Samuel Eto'o celebrates with teammate Ashley Cole after Eto'o's shot is saved by Steaua Bucuresti's goalkeeper, but unfortunately deflects off Cole and into the net for an own-goal. This unfortunate own-goal came just moments after Cole had scored a legitimate goal for Chelsea, making it a bittersweet moment for the English defender. The Champions League group stage match, held at Stamford Bridge, saw Chelsea take an early lead through a goal from Eden Hazard. However, Steaua Bucuresti fought back with two quick goals, including the own-goals by Eto'o and Cole. Chelsea managed to recover and eventually won the match 3-2, thanks to a late goal from Oscar. This photo is a reminder of the unpredictable nature of football and the importance of teamwork and focus, even in the face of setbacks. Eto'o and Cole may have contributed to the own-goals, but their team spirit and determination helped Chelsea overcome the challenges and secure a valuable three points in the Champions League. Darren Walsh, the photographer, expertly captured the emotion and intensity of the moment, making this image a standout from the European matches of the 2013-2014 season. The image is a testament to the high stakes and excitement of Champions League football and the thrill of being part of a top-tier football club like Chelsea.
