The year is 1987, and the Republic of Ireland's football team has just achieved an extraordinary feat - defeating Brazil in an international friendly match at Lansdowne Road. The focal point of the image is Liam Brady, the hero of the hour. With arms raised triumphantly, he basks in the adulation from his teammates who surround him in sheer elation. To his left stands Paul Moran and Paul McGrath, their faces beaming with joy as they revel in this historic victory. On Brady's right side are Liam O'Brien and John Aldridge, their expressions mirroring that of their comrades. Their unity is palpable; it is evident that this goal signifies more than just a win against one of football's greatest nations - it represents a collective achievement for Ireland.
