The submissions for this category were ok overall. First place captured the best action hands down. Second place had great action and composition. The rain adds to the energy of the photo.Third place had good action, but the lighting is a bit harsh. HM is a good thought, but would have been stronger with a clearer view of Messi's face through the net.
