Bryan Hughes' Stunner: Birmingham City FC Triumphs over Preston North End in the Worthington Cup (05-11-2002) This iconic photograph captures the electrifying moment when Bryan Hughes of Birmingham City Football Club (BCFC) scored the winning goal against Preston North End in the Worthington Cup quarter-finals on November 5,2002. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Mike Egerton, immortalizes Hughes' stunning strike that secured a hard-fought victory for BCFC at St. Andrew's Stadium. The Worthington Cup, now known as the Carabao Cup, is an annual knockout football competition in England for the top teams in the English Football League system. This particular match was played during the 2002-03 season, with both teams vying for a place in the semifinals. The tension was palpable as the game progressed, with neither side able to gain a decisive advantage. As the clock ticked down, the pressure mounted on both teams to find a winning goal. In the 89th minute, Hughes received a pass from the midfield and, with a deft touch, unleashed an unstoppable shot from just outside the penalty area. The ball arced through the air, eluding the desperate dive of Preston North End's goalkeeper and nestling itself in the back of the net. The crowd erupted in jubilation, and Hughes' teammates rushed to congratulate him on his brilliant goal. This photograph serves as a testament to Hughes' skill and determination, as well as the excitement and passion of football at the professional level. It remains a cherished memory for BCFC fans and a reminder of the thrilling moments that can unfold on the football pitch.
