In this gripping image, Roger Byrne (#3) rushes to his teammate's aid, showing the camaraderie and sportsmanship that define the beautiful game. Meanwhile, Bobby Charlton stands nearby, displaying concern for his fallen comrade. With no substitutes allowed in those days, Jackie Blanchflower (#5) steps up to fill the void left by Wood's unfortunate injury.
