Great moment in Birmingham City FC history captured in this stunning photograph by renowned sports photographer Mike Egerton. The image showcases Dele Adebola's elated expression as he celebrates scoring the second goal against Sheffield Wednesday in the Fifth Round of the Worthington Cup on December 12,2000. The season was 2000-01, a campaign that saw Birmingham City make a remarkable run in the competition. The first goal was scored by Adebola in the 35th minute, but it was his second goal in the 53rd minute that proved to be the decisive moment in the match. The Nigerian striker's clinical finish from close range gave Birmingham City a commanding 2-0 lead, and they went on to secure a hard-fought 3-1 victory over their Yorkshire rivals. The Worthington Cup was a valuable competition for Birmingham City at the time, providing an opportunity to secure silverware and a route into European competition. Adebola's double strike against Sheffield Wednesday was a significant contribution to the team's success in the competition that season. The photograph captures the intensity and excitement of the moment, with Adebola's teammates and fans joining in the celebration. It's a reminder of a memorable night in Birmingham City's history and a testament to the skill and determination of one of the club's beloved players.
