The copper on the right looks very angry indeed.From that long ago colour photography hadn't been invented and smoking inside the stadium was still allowed.

Great photo, but the debunking of the circumstances ruined it a little bit for me.https://images.app.goo.gl/XNnqLZBtRmafu9iPA
The Maccarone diving header photo got me thinking of great sporting photos. I'll start with this from the 1986 world cup.
This photograph is a little misleading though. It’s just a Belgian wall breaking up after a short free kick was played.https://images.app.goo.gl/XNnqLZBtRmafu9iPA

I think the picture was from the gazette photographer, it was Hicktons penalty against QPR. I was at the game we were 0-2 after about 10 mins. Ended up winning 6-2. Pen was fourth I think and part of Hicktons hat trick.There were some great framed pictures of the Boro in the old Boro Fish Bar on Linthorpe Road. One in particular was Hickton scoring a penalty. A fantastic picture that I've never seen anywhere else. I think they all got destroyed when the place burnt down.

I didn't know that, I'll pretend I didn't read this!This photograph is a little misleading though. It’s just a Belgian wall breaking up after a short free kick was played.
It is an iconic photograph though.
