EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photograph captured by Kirk O'Rourke, the tension between two football giants, Rangers and Celtic, comes to a head during the William Hill Scottish Cup Semi Final at Hampden Park, Glasgow, in 2003. The Old Firm derby, as these matches are famously known, is a hotly contested rivalry with deep historical roots and immense passion from fans. At the heart of the action, Rangers' assistant manager Frank McParland (left) locks eyes with Sir Clive Woodward (right), the former England rugby union head coach who was working as a pundit for the BBC at the time. The image captures the intense focus and determination of both men, each driven by their own ambitions and the weight of their respective teams' histories. The Scottish Cup was the oldest domestic cup competition in the world, and winning it would be a significant achievement for either team. The stakes were high, and the pressure was immense. McParland and Woodward, two respected figures in their respective sports, found themselves in the midst of this historic moment. Rangers, led by McParland and manager Alex McLeish, emerged victorious that day, securing their place in the Scottish Cup Final. The team went on to win the final against Heart of Midlothian, securing their 33rd Scottish Cup title and adding another trophy to their impressive collection. This photograph serves as a testament to the passion, intensity, and history of the Old Firm derby and the Scottish Cup. It encapsulates the spirit of competition and the unwavering dedication of the players, managers, and fans involved. The image remains a cherished memory for Rangers supporters and a reminder of their team's rich footballing heritage.
