EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Albert Cooper, we see the talented England footballer David Platt engaging in a friendly game of tennis at the team base in Italy. It was taken on the 27th of June, 1990, just one day after his remarkable last-minute goal against Belgium secured England's place in the quarter-finals of the thrilling 1990 World Cup. Despite being off-pitch and away from the intense football action, Platt's dedication to staying active is evident as he effortlessly swings his racket while sporting a casual green t-shirt and flip flops. The image portrays a relaxed yet determined man who knows how to balance leisure with his passion for sports. Within this snapshot, we catch a glimpse into Platt's world beyond football. Seated comfortably on a bed inside his hotel room, he takes some time to unwind and catch up on current events by reading an intriguing newspaper article. This momentary escape allows him to recharge before returning to face new challenges on the pitch. Cooper's photograph not only encapsulates Platt's versatility as an athlete but also serves as a reminder of England's triumphant journey during Italia '90. This iconic image transports us back to that exhilarating era when football fever gripped nations worldwide, leaving an indelible mark on both players and fans alike.
