Maltese footballers in red shirt fight for the ball with the Italians in blue.
Because we were seated behind the goalposts we were somewhat far from the action, taking into account also that a race track surrounds the football pitch. I wished I had a lens with a better zoom for the occasion and I remembered my Panasonic FZ45 which I still have and which has better zooming. It might have been better for the occasion but it was too late for that. Besides, the Panasonic makes much more ‘noise’ than the Nikon and would have created prublems in that sense.
Thank you so much for looking and for your lovely comments and the fav's on yesterday's picture.
Great collage. These are good action shots and although a longer zoom would have given you better closeups I prefer these with more players and action in them
Great montage . I particularly like all the action in the bottom right hand shot - so typical of the jostling for possession of the ball that you get in a match.
Great collage of beautiful pic.`s of the football game and stadion. Nobody know`s what`s happen. The players are mainly the same , only a chance of the coach. And the new coach : Guus hiddink Is a very famous one.
Great collage of these action shots!!! Nicely captured!!! But, I'm somewhat confused, Dione, is this football like we have in America? If so, why do the players not wear helmets and other protective gear?
