Great capture. Those eyes say it all! The contrast of background spectators and intense athletes is a great fit for the challenge.

Great shot. With the short amount of time you would have had to get this shot extremely well done.

Excellent pic, just not sure about the bokeh though. Can't see that the background is enhancing the subject.

Fantastic action shot. Great look of intensity - while loking right at the camera. So crisp and clear, tremendous color.

Nice sport shot. Has faces, expression and action. The oof area isn't very well defined and does not add to the picture. For the challenge this is an average entry.

This would be AWESOME with a closer crop on the eyes.... as it is, they don't stand out quite enough... great action shot though =D

Great action shot but the whites look a little overblown.

Very nice action shot which stops the game but tells a story. Not too many logos and ads in it thank goodness. Soccer looks uglier for the ads these days IMO. Overall very good. Bokeh is a bit on the limited side though. 8.
