Garnacho - Overhead goal
Garnacho - Overhead goal

The atmosphere was tremendous for United's game at Goodison Park on 26 Nov 2023. Everton fans united in full voice protest against an unprecedented 10 point deduction for breaching financial fair play that saw them drop into the relegation zone. It took just two minutes for the crowd to be silenced by a goal that will go down as one of the greatest of all time by 19yr old United and Argentina wide forward, Alejandro Garnacho. As Diogo Dalot crossed the ball, Garnacho took three quick steps away from goal and rose to meet the cross with the most exquisite over head kick, connecting perfectly to send the ball rocketing 20 yards into the corner of the goal.
Gary Neville said, on commentary for Sky Sports: "I don't think I've ever been in a stadium where I've seen an overhead kick that good... and I was there for Wayne Rooney's against Manchester City. That is a magical, magical goal. That is one of the best you will ever see. I can't believe it. I don't think it can get any better in his career in terms of a goal. Absolutely spectacular, a world-class moment. I've never seen an overhead kick goal as good as that. He has to step metres away from goal, shuffles his feet and lift himself into the air. I've never seen a goal like it."
We were impressed too Gary.
Alejandro Garnacho has made a name for himself as a player capable of extraordinary things. Millions of fans around the world hope he will go on to be one of United and Argentina's all time greats.
The Finished Product
Each Sporting Moment is designed by hand with pen and paper. The image is turned into a digital file for cutting by CNC machine using a 9mm high density fibre board which is black throughout and specially designed for finely detailed cutting work.
I make three sizes of sculpture - 60cm, 75cm and 90cm as measured by the longest side. Some of the sculptures are only available in the larger sizes due to the intricacy of the design.
Packaging
Each sculpture is ergonomically packaged in its own wooden surround to arrive in perfect condition. Opening your package is simple; remove outer card board and use a palette knife to slide between the wood layers and pop open the staples.
Hanging
Hanging your sculpture is very simple. They are designed to rest on two picture nails provided. Hold the sculpture in place and use a pencil to mark where you want to put the nails, near the top towards the left and right.

Can I request a custom design?

Can I get a supersized sculpture for my office?
Yes you can! Giant version of all designs can be made in any size to fit your wall. They will arrive in sections and be installed by us. Please get in touch with your requirements for a quote.
What is the maximum size of the sculpture?
Our ready to order sculptures are available in three sizes: 60cm, 75cm and 90cm on the longest side and 9mm thick. Some of the designs are only available in the larger sizes. This is to avoid detail being lost during cutting.
Can I choose the colour of the sculpture?
Currently only available in black.
Is the sculpture fragile?
The sculptures are made from high density fibre board, which is strong and durable. However, they are still susceptible to damage if handled roughly, so it is important to hold them with carefully with two hands when unpacking and hanging.
How do I install the sculpture on my wall?
Installation is simple: Two nails are included in the packaging. Hold the sculpture up to the wall. Mark with a pencil where you want the nails, one on each side towards the top. Hammer in the nails leaving a cm sticking out and hang the sculpture.
Is the packaging environmentally friendly?
The packaging uses the waste from the cutting process to protect the sculpture, and is then sandwiched between two thin mdf boards and wrapped in cardboard. The packaging is plastic free and the mdf boards are made from recycled wood shavings so there is no need to cut down any new trees to make the material. We recommend to keep the packaging as it's the safest way to transport your sculpture should you ever need to move it.
Will I have to pay customs duty?
Orders outside the UK may be subject to customs or duty charges in accordance to the regulations of the destination country or state.
Can I use one of your designs for a tattoo?
Knock yourself out - send me a pic when the scab has healed.
