EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a historic moment during the Coventry City v Nottingham Forest football match at Highfield Road on 22nd April 1978. The intense game ended in a nail-biting 0-0 draw, but it was one particular moment that stole the show. In the 35th minute of the match, Coventry's Mick Ferguson launched a powerful header towards Nottingham Forest's goal, aiming to secure victory for his team.

With lightning-fast reflexes and unwavering determination, Shilton leaped into action and made an extraordinary save that forced the ball over the crossbar. Little did anyone know at that time how crucial this save would be for Nottingham Forest. Brian Clough's remarkable side went on to clinch the First Division champions title, thanks in no small part to Shilton's heroics on that fateful day.

Even Mick Ferguson himself admitted, "I thought I had done everything right and it looked a certain goal". This mesmerizing image serves as a reminder of how individual brilliance can shape sporting history. It immortalizes Peter Shilton's incredible athleticism and showcases why he remains an icon in football today.
