Eighteen-year-old Justin Wong had Daigo "The Beast" Umehara on the ropes in the Street Fighter III: Third Strike semifinals at Evolution Championship Series 2004. He had methodically brought Umehara just one unit of health from defeat, only to end up on the losing side of what is called Evo Moment 37, or the "Daigo Parry", widely considered the most iconic moment in gaming history. In what commentators called "rare footage of Daigo actually angry," Umehara successfully defended Wong's Super Art Move and unleashed a 12-hit combo, capped by a Hurricane Swift Thunder Leg, to win the match. Name either character whose name is redacted in the image.
Ken, Chun-Li

In the first competition following the rebrand from UEFA Cup to UEFA Europa League, English club Fulham made it all the way to the 2009/10 Final, their first European final in club history. On their way there, they clashed with a European powerhouse in the Round of 16. Three first half goals consigned Fulham to defeat in the first leg away. On the return leg, however, Fulham overcame an early goal from a French World Cup champion to deadlock the score on aggregate 4-4 early in the second half. In the 82nd minute, USMNT legend Clint Dempsey delivered one of the most famous goals in the competition’s history, chipping the keeper from outside the box and giving Fulham a 5-4 aggregate lead they would not relinquish. Which European giant, then-3rd in total European trophies won, did lowly Fulham vanquish with that victory?
Juventus
