EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Thomas Buffel shines brightly amidst a star-studded tribute to Fernando Ricksen at Ibrox Stadium. The Dutch midfielder, dressed in the iconic blue and white stripes of Rangers Football Club, is seen in full flight during the charity match organized in honor of the beloved Dutch footballer. Ricksen, a former Rangers player and Scottish Cup winner in 2003, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013, and the tribute match was an outpouring of love and support from the football community. Buffel, who played for Rangers from 2003 to 2005, is shown here in the thick of the action, his determined expression and focused gaze giving testament to his passion for the game. The photograph captures the intensity and energy of the match, with Buffel skillfully maneuvering the ball past an opponent, surrounded by a sea of blue and white jerseys. The backdrop to this poignant scene is the hallowed grounds of Ibrox Stadium, a place where Ricksen and Buffel, along with countless other footballing greats, left indelible memories on the hearts and minds of Rangers fans. The stadium, bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun, stands as a testament to the enduring power of football to bring people together in times of need and celebration. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the beauty and power of football, and the indomitable spirit of those who play the game. It serves as a tribute not only to Fernando Ricksen, but to all those who have been touched by the game and the challenges it presents, both on and off the field. The trophies and Scottish Cup winners' medals displayed proudly in the foreground serve as a reminder of the triumphs and victories that can be achieved through hard work, determination, and a love of the beautiful game.
