It must own to be a real player (or the husk of one in this case) in MLS, just dominating everyone

Can someone find me a gif or video of the moment in the Liverpool game where Toure and Giaccherini clashed into one another, flipped about, then landed almost spooning and they both had a laugh about it? Can't find it anywhere. Happened sometime around the 70th minute I'd guess. edit: Here's a low quality video of what I'm talking about : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opRmmmJtp0g joshtothemaxx fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Sep 29, 2013 |

I thought I'd do a lovely effort post with some pictures because I don't care about boring pictures of loving Arsenal players. Anyway, nowadays we are all so incredibly used to pictures taken at night with incredibly fast cameras and long lenses with really large aperture and poo poo. You know, stuff like this: These pictures have become so usual in our consumption of football news that we barely think about it I guess. But go back over a hundred years ago and things were a lot different, photo tech wise. Back then shooting a picture was a matter of hours and you needed as much light as possible.  Sheffield Football Club's first picture in 1857 So back then the norm was illustrations, not photos. Kinda like this:  Around the 1890s, most actual football pictures were just team pictures and players posing. But luckily photographic technology took a leap and faster shooting became a reality.  Football. FA Cup Final. 1899. Crystal Palace, London. England. Sheffield United 4 v Derby County 1. General view of the match showing the large crowds at Crystal Palace, 73,833 (then a World record). This may not be the oldest picture of an actual match taking place but it sure is really old. As time advanced, photography became more available and pictures during games became easier to shoot. Not that it was a really simple matter because you could still only shoot a limited amount of frames and you really had to know what you were doing, get your timing right and understand your camera gear to do a half-assed job.  Arsenal vs. Fulham, 1914, a non lovely picture of Arsenal players actually playing! The Getty Images archive has some wonderful old gems too, like this:  24th December 1920: A Christmas Eve football match in progress in the mud between Topical Press and Photo Press at Nunhead. After the beginning of the 20th century, football photography became commonplace, populating newspapers and specialized magazines.  The final of the first World Cup in history, Uruguay 1930, a game Uruguay would win 4-2. This is a hand-colored picture. Sports photography in general had become already a staple in journalism thanks to the quick advance in shutter speeds and better lenses, and the later dominance of the SLR allowed photojournalists to capture action more precisely.  Diego Maradona, Italy 1990 But football photography is a lot more than just capturing important moments during a match! The culture surrounding the game carries great significance as well.  Lyon celebrating after their victory in the Coupe de France, 1973.  George Best, 1966. Football photography almost always gets conflated with symbolic football moments, you know, important stuff that matters not because the football is good, but because there's an underlying reason to appreciate a match under certain conditions.  Afghanistan vs. Pakistan, 2013. The first time in 10 years an official football match took place in Afghanistan.  You know what's going on here. Sometimes these pictures are more valuable not because they are beautiful, but because they mark those moments that many people won't forget. Though that's hardly it. The personality cult that reigns in football sometimes becomes more patent in the way some players are portrayed.  Lev Yashin! The history of football hides a ridiculous number of beautiful pictures, not simply images where you can see [famous player] score or do something stupid, but photos of unique moments that have passed through generations of fans and supporters, things that made people feel passionate about their team, poo poo that crushed people's souls. Football photography is so much more than just finding a funny picture of a lovely player. It's a way to look at football and a different way to appreciate the beauty of the game.  Elías Figueroa, Internacional, 1975.  Bob Paisley carrying Emlyn Hughes  South African keeper Khune during the 2010 World Cup  Bobby Charlton and Eddy McCreadie So when you find one of those old sports magazines, look at the pictures, take some time to appreciate it. And yeah, post more cool or meaningful pictures. That'd be cool and good.
