Great moment captured in this photograph from the Preston North End vs. Watford Capital One Cup clash during the 2015/16 season. The tension was palpable at Deepdale as both teams battled it out for a place in the next round of the competition. Preston North End, then managed by Simon Grayson, were determined to make an impact in their first season back in the Championship after a five-year absence. Watford, on the other hand, were a newly promoted Premier League side, eager to prove themselves in the lower tier. The atmosphere was electric as the teams took to the field, with the home fans in fine voice, eager to spur their team on to victory. In this image, we see Preston North End's Callum Robinson (number 14) in action, challenging for the ball with Watford's Adrian Mariappa (number 5). The intensity of the moment is clear, with both players giving their all in the pursuit of the prize. The game ended in a 1-1 draw, with the tie going to penalties. Preston North End emerged as the victors, with goalkeeper Chris Maxwell saving the decisive spot-kick to secure their place in the next round. The victory was a morale-boosting moment for the team and their fans, providing an early indication of the fighting spirit that would carry them through the season. This photograph, taken by esteemed local photographer Dave Kendall, captures the passion, determination, and excitement of a cup tie between two ambitious teams. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of football and the thrill of the underdog story.
