EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print from 1970, we witness a moment of sportsmanship and respect between two football captains. Arsenal's fearless leader, Frank McLintock, extends his hand to greet Koln captain Wolfgang Overath at Highbury Stadium during the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup quarter-final first leg match. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as these two talented teams prepare to battle it out on the pitch. McLintock, known for his unwavering determination and leadership skills, exemplifies true sportsmanship by approaching Overath with a friendly gesture. His handshake symbolizes not only mutual respect but also the spirit of fair play that lies at the heart of football. Overath reciprocates McLintock's gesture with equal grace and dignity. As both captains lock eyes in this fleeting moment captured by Colorsport Images, one can almost sense their shared understanding of the immense responsibility they bear as leaders on their respective teams. This photograph serves as a reminder that beyond fierce competition and rivalries lie moments of camaraderie and unity in sport.
