EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured during the 1972 UEFA European Football Championship final, we witness a moment of pure jubilation and camaraderie among the West German players. Gerd Muller, their star striker, has just opened the scoring in spectacular fashion, prompting his teammates to rush towards him with beaming smiles and outstretched arms. The image perfectly encapsulates the elation felt by Muller's fellow countrymen as they congratulate him for his remarkable achievement. The sheer joy on their faces reflects not only their pride in Muller's goal but also their collective triumph as a team. Among those celebrating alongside Muller are Franz Beckenbauer and Paul Breitner, two legendary figures in German football history. Their presence adds an extra layer of significance to this snapshot of victory, symbolizing the unity and strength that propelled West Germany to claim a resounding 3-0 win over the Soviet Union. Taken at Heysel Stadium in Brussels, this photograph immortalizes a crucial moment in European football history. It serves as a reminder of both individual brilliance and teamwork – qualities that defined West Germany's success throughout Euro '72. Colorsport Images' expert photographer Mike Wall skillfully captures every emotion within this frame, allowing us to relive the passion and excitement that permeated that historic day.
