Great photo capturing the unforgettable moment when Coventry City players celebrated an own-goal scored by West Ham United's Christian Dailly during the FA Carling Premiership match at Upton Park on February 12,2001. In this thrilling image, Coventry City players Dion Dublin, Robbie Keane, Gary McAllister, Eidur Gudjohnsen, and Robert Earnshaw (from left to right) are seen jubilantly reacting to the unexpected turn of events. The scene is set at Upton Park, the home ground of West Ham United, where Coventry City had traveled to face their rivals in a highly anticipated league match. The tension was palpable as both teams fought for points in the 2000-01 season. Suddenly, in the 52nd minute, Dailly inadvertently deflected the ball into his own net, giving Coventry City a much-needed lead. The Coventry City players erupted in euphoria, with Dublin leading the charge, as they celebrated their fortunate yet hard-earned advantage. This moment encapsulates the unpredictability and excitement of football, as even the most unexpected events can change the course of a game. The photo beautifully captures the raw emotions and passion of the players, making it a truly unforgettable moment in Coventry City's history. Nick Potts, the talented photographer, expertly captured this moment, preserving it for future generations of Coventry City fans to cherish. This image is a testament to the power of football and the enduring memories it creates.
