It is hard to account for the delight I continue to experience revisiting a single moment from a football (soccer) game, but yet this moment when a young Aston Villa fan flips off the full back for Crystal Palace does just that. I think it must be the cherubimesque face of the boy and his complete commitment to the flipping off with both hands that reflects his outrage at being waved at by an opposing player. It happened in the blink of an eye, but someone somewhere captured the moment. Despite it being a TikTok of a phone recording of a television screen, I am grateful.
