Congratulations on winning the cup dude... I assume this was when you were out of action b/c of injury? There's a lot going on in this image, i.e too many distractions from what you want the viewer looking at, the ball. Tighter crop would have really helped this... IMHO

Nice timing! Focus slightly off because of panning I guess?? Meets the challenge, and captures real action. 6/10.

nice moment, but it looks a little soft. would probably be stronger if it was cropped tighter.
