I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: The overall effect here is like one of finger painting - I like that; it creates its own abstraction without compromising the integrity of the scene. Quite Turner-esque in that regard. The stoic man in the centre is fundamental to the success of the image, we wonder why he is unmoved by the goal; a home team fan who couldn't get a ticket in another part of the stadium?? I can see how it might have been tempting to go monochrome with this but for me, the colour rendition has proved to be an outstanding choice.
Critical stuff: No
Overall: very well crafted image. Much harder than it looks I suggest.
