The atmosphere at Twickenham is electric as two rugby powerhouses, Harlequins and Gloucester, battle it out for a spot in the final. The image captures six determined players from both teams standing side by side before kick-off. Their faces reflect a mix of anticipation, focus, and unwavering determination.
