EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print from The Northcliffe Collection, we witness a powerful moment of camaraderie and triumph. It captures the legendary Jimmy Greaves, with his arm draped around the exhausted but elated Alan Ball, as they stand on the hallowed grounds of Wembley Stadium at the end of the World Cup Final in 1966. The image encapsulates both physical exhaustion and emotional fulfillment. Greaves' supportive gesture symbolizes not only their shared victory but also their bond as teammates. As members of the victorious England team, they had just defeated West Germany 4-2 in an unforgettable match that took place on July 30th. Greaves' arm around Ball serves as a testament to their collective effort and determination throughout the tournament. It speaks volumes about their unity and resilience in achieving football's ultimate glory on home soil. This photograph is more than just a snapshot; it represents an indelible moment in sporting history. It immortalizes two footballing icons who played pivotal roles in England's success during that memorable summer of '66. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are reminded not only of England's triumphant journey but also of how sport can unite nations and inspire generations. This print is a cherished piece from The Northcliffe Collection that allows us to relive one of football's most significant moments through its visual storytelling prowess.
