EDITORS COMMENTS
In this gripping moment captured by Lynne Cameron during the Clydesdale Bank Premier League match between Rangers and Motherwell in season 07-08, Novo of Rangers (right) is denied a goal by an controversial goal-line tackle from Motherwell's Graeme Smith. The tension in the air is palpable as Novo charges towards the goal, poised to score what would have been a crucial equalizer for Rangers. However, Smith, determined to keep a clean sheet for Motherwell, slides in with both feet, bringing down Novo just as the ball crossed the goal line. The referee, amidst the chaos and heated protests from Rangers players and fans, ruled in favor of the Motherwell goalkeeper. The decision sparked controversy and heated debates among football pundits and fans alike. Some argued that Smith had committed a foul and denied a clear goalscoring opportunity, while others believed that the tackle was fair play. Despite the controversy, Smith's goal-line tackle proved to be a turning point in the match, as Motherwell held on to their narrow lead and secured a hard-fought victory. The incident served as a reminder of the intense rivalry between these two Scottish football clubs and the passion that drives their players and fans. This photograph, taken at Ibrox Stadium, captures the raw emotion and intensity of football, and serves as a testament to the unpredictability and excitement of the beautiful game.
