EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the hallowed turf of Ibrox Stadium plays host to a star-studded tribute match in honor of two beloved Rangers Legends: Ronald Waterreus and Fernando Ricksen. The image captures the intensity and passion of the beautiful game as Waterreus, the legendary goalkeeper, comes out of his goal to join the action. The Dutch international, who donned the Rangers jersey from 1996 to 2003, is a symbol of the club's rich history and successes, most notably the Scottish Cup victory in 2003. Beside him, the vibrant energy of Ricksen, a former Dutch international defender, is palpable as he engages in a fierce challenge. Diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013, Ricksen's courage and resilience have inspired the football community and beyond. This tribute match was a testament to his indomitable spirit and the enduring bond between the players, the fans, and the club. The photograph is filled with a sense of camaraderie and unity, as players from various eras come together to celebrate the careers and legacies of Waterreus and Ricksen. The backdrop of Ibrox Stadium, adorned with the Scottish Cup trophies from 2003, adds to the significance of the moment. The event was not only a celebration of the past but also a reminder of the power of football to bring people together and make a difference. The proceeds from the match went to the Fernando Ricksen Foundation, which supports research into Motor Neurone Disease and provides care and assistance to those affected by it. The photograph encapsulates the essence of the beautiful game – passion, unity, and the power to make a difference.
