Title: Motoball Goalie

This is a somewhat different sports photo for me. It was taken on September 17, 2017 in the German Motoball League game between MSC Seelze and Comet Durmersheim. The position behind the goals is a forbidden zone, and the referee always makes sure that no persons are behind the goals. But I couldn't resist and wanted to have a scene where all players, the referee, and the ball can be seen in the photo. I chose the detail so that the goalie in the foreground on the right is in focus, and all other players in the scene were in front of the opposing goal. I wanted to show the players in the background relatively blurred, but so that it is still possible to guess what kind of sport is shown here.
