Ultra-high-definition 4K photorealistic sports photograph. Funny Christmas moment on a snow-dusted football pitch at dusk. Low, sideline camera angle at dog-eye level. A fluffy white Maltese (full body) in a tiny red football jersey with the number 25 and a slightly crooked Santa hat leaps for a dramatic diving header at a regulation football with a subtle holly pattern; the hat is slipping over one eye for comic effect. Breath vapor visible, delicate snowflakes frozen midair, crisp frost on emerald turf with tiny paw prints trailing behind. In the softly out-of-focus background: a goal net twinkling with warm fairy lights, a candy-cane striped corner flag, stadium floodlights, and a cheering crowd in cozy holiday scarves (no logos). Natural, accurate lighting with cool ambient sky tones and warm stadium highlights; true-to-life textures on fur, leather ball, and grass; reflections of lights in the dog’s eyes. Shot on a full-frame camera, 85mm lens at f/1.8, 1/2000s, ISO 400; shallow depth of field with the dog and ball tack-sharp, cinematic bokeh behind; clean, subtle color grade (no HDR look).

Include a single short caption inside the scene on a pitch-side LED board, bold white sans-serif, uppercase: “YULE NEVER WALK ALONE”. Keep it small and tasteful. No other text. No brands.
