In this iconic photograph taken by Francis Glibbery, Gianluca Vialli, the charismatic Italian striker and manager of Chelsea Football Club, proudly lifts the FA Cup aloft after leading his team to a hard-fought victory against Middlesbrough at Wembley Stadium on May 11,1997. With a triumphant expression etched on his face, Vialli celebrates with his teammates and staff, having secured Chelsea's fifth FA Cup title in their storied history. The FA Cup Final of 1997 was a thrilling encounter, with both teams displaying tenacity and skill. Middlesbrough, under the management of Bryan Robson, put up a valiant fight, but Chelsea's determination and attacking prowess ultimately paid off. Vialli, who had joined the club in 1996, had already made an indelible impact on the team, both as a player and as a leader. His goal in the semifinal against Leicester City had set the stage for this momentous occasion. The FA Cup victory marked a turning point for Chelsea Football Club. It was the first major trophy for the team under Vialli's management and signaled the beginning of a new era of success. The triumphant scene at Wembley Stadium, captured so beautifully by Francis Glibbery, serves as a testament to Vialli's leadership and the team's resilience, and remains a cherished moment in the club's history.
