EDITORS COMMENTS
In this extraordinary snapshot from October 1978, we witness a moment of pure magic on the football field. Bristol City's very own Kevin Mabbutt showcases his exceptional ball control skills in an unexpected and humorous manner. As he leaps into the air, his head connects flawlessly with the soccer ball, sending it soaring towards an unlikely recipient - a playful sea lion. Captured during a photocall at Ashton Gate, this image encapsulates the spirit of sportsmanship and adventure that defined the 1970s. The sea lion, seemingly caught off guard by Mabbutt's precise header, gazes curiously at the incoming ball with wide-eyed wonderment. It is as if even nature itself cannot resist being captivated by such skillful athleticism. This photograph serves as a delightful reminder that sport has no boundaries or limitations when it comes to creating unforgettable moments. The unusual pairing of footballer and marine creature brings forth laughter and astonishment alike. It reminds us that within every game lies room for surprise and joy. Decades later, this charming print continues to evoke smiles among fans worldwide who appreciate both sporting prowess and lightheartedness.
