EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, taken at Ibrox Stadium, the hallowed grounds of Rangers Football Club, the spirit of football comes alive as champions collide in a memorable tribute to Fernando Ricksen. The Dutch football icon, who spent five successful years at Rangers from 2000 to 2005, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013, prompting an outpouring of love and support from the football community. The image captures the essence of unity and solidarity as players from various teams and eras come together to honor Ricksen's legacy. At the heart of the action is Charlie Miller, a Scottish international and former Rangers player, who was a teammate of Ricksen during the club's Scottish Cup-winning season in 2002-03. Miller is seen in mid-flight, attempting to head the ball past an opponent, a testament to the fierce competition and determination that defines the beautiful game. Surrounding the players are the gleaming trophies of Rangers' past triumphs, including the Scottish Cup from the 2002-03 season, a symbol of the team's rich history and traditions. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the power of sport to bring people together in times of need and to celebrate the indomitable spirit of those who have faced adversity. The tribute match, which took place in 2015, was a fitting tribute to Ricksen's time at Rangers and raised funds for the Fernando Ricksen Foundation, which supports research into Motor Neurone Disease and provides care and support to those affected by the condition. The photograph encapsulates the essence of the event, capturing the raw emotion, passion, and camaraderie that defines football and the indelible impact that Ricksen had on the sport and those who love it.
