This image captures an outdoor football (soccer) match in Illkirch-Graffenstaden, France, under an overcast sky with patches of brighter light breaking through the clouds. The scene is viewed from a slightly elevated position behind a white railing in the foreground. The majority of the lower half of the image is occupied by a green grass football pitch. Multiple individuals are present on the field: players in bright pink short-sleeved jerseys with black shorts and socks are visible, particularly on the right side of the field (one player in the right foreground has the number "17" on their back, facing away from the camera). Other players are visible in white or light-colored jerseys with dark shorts and white socks, predominantly on the left side of the field. A referee, distinct in a bright yellow long-sleeved jersey, black shorts, and socks, stands near the center-right of the field, observing the players. Along the far sideline of the pitch, white team benches or dugouts are visible, with signage including "BOMATECH" and "Crédit Mutuel". Spectators are gathered behind these structures and along the perimeter of the field. Two tall, dark floodlight poles are positioned on either side of the field. In the background, beyond the pitch and spectator area, a series of buildings with pitched roofs are visible, characteristic of residential or communal architecture. One building in the center-left background features an ornate gable. Various trees punctuate the skyline; some are deciduous with sparse autumn foliage, while others are tall, dark green coniferous trees, particularly prominent on the right side of the frame. The overall lighting suggests late afternoon or early evening conditions.
