Football players give me some great action shots but this image stands out, for me, because of the emotion. A super goal and celebration led to this and it's one of my favourite images of 2024.

Shot on a Nikon D5 with Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8. 1/1000 and f/4 at 135mm. The ISO was 12800 and I used DXO Pure Raw to process the image.
