EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Colorsport Images, we witness the intense battle between Martin Johnson and the Australian forwards during the thrilling 2003 World Cup Final. The match, held at Telstra Stadium (now Stadium Australia) in Sydney, Australia, was a nail-biting encounter that saw England emerge victorious with a score of 20-17 after extra time. As the image portrays, England players Ben Kay, Josh Lewsey, Martin Johnson, and Phil Vickery are seen desperately attempting to halt an advancing Australian driving maul. With determination etched on their faces and bodies fully committed to stopping their opponents' progress, these English warriors epitomize the relentless spirit of rugby union. At the heart of this fierce contest is Martin Johnson himself – a towering figure who led his team with unwavering resolve throughout his illustrious career. In this moment frozen in time by photographer Matt Lewis, we witness Johnson's sheer strength and tenacity as he takes on multiple Australian forwards single-handedly. The presence of George Smith holding possession for Australia adds further drama to this scene. As both teams clash head-on in pursuit of victory on rugby's grandest stage, every player's commitment is palpable through their actions captured within this photograph. This print serves as a testament to the intensity and physicality inherent in rugby union while also immortalizing one of England's greatest triumphs on foreign soil.
