EDITORS COMMENTS
Great print capturing the historic moment when Emerson Thome, a Brazilian football legend, donned the Rangers jersey in a pivotal match against VFB Auerbach in the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 2003. The image, skillfully captured by renowned sports photographer John Walton, encapsulates the intensity and drama of the encounter. Thome, who had already made a name for himself as a formidable defender at various European clubs, joined Rangers in the winter transfer window that year. This match against Austrian side VFB Auerbach, played at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow, marked his debut in the Rangers jersey. The atmosphere was electric, with the Rangers faithful eagerly anticipating the impact of their new signing. Thome, in turn, was determined to make a statement and leave a lasting impression. The photo shows him in mid-action, focused intently on the ball as he defends against an Auerbach attacker. His expression is one of unwavering determination, a testament to his legendary status as a tough and tenacious defender. The encounter proved to be a defining moment in Thome's Rangers career. Despite playing in a new team and against unfamiliar opponents, he put in a commanding performance that left the Rangers fans in awe. The team went on to win the match, and Thome's contributions were instrumental in their success. This print is a reminder of that historic encounter and Thome's legendary performance. It's a testament to the power of football to bring people together, to create unforgettable moments, and to inspire awe and admiration in those who witness it. Whether you're a Rangers fan, a football enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the game, this print is a must-have addition to your collection.
