Phil Collins' son Matthew shared a rare new photo of his legendary 74-year-old father. According to Matthew Collins, the photo with his dad was taken when the legendary musician came to support his son at a football match last weekend. This is reported by UNN with reference to Independent.

20-year-old Matthew plays for the Austrian club WSG Tirol and posted a photo on Instagram showing him in uniform next to a smiling Collins in the stands. The photo was published a few months after the Genesis vocalist admitted that he is "very ill" and does not feel motivated to record any new music.

Great victories today

The new photo received many positive reviews from fans of the couple and other family members, including Matthew's brother-in-law Charlie McDowell, who is married to actress Lily Collins.

I like it so much

"Emily in Paris" star Lily, Matthew's half-sister, added: "I love everything about this", reposting the post with a white heart emoji.

Additionally

Phil Collins has previously expressed his support for his son Matthew's sports career, noting that he loves music but loves football "even more."

I keep thinking I should go down to the studio and see what happens, but I don't want to anymore

He also added: "The thing is, I'm very sick. I mean, very sick."

Reference

Phil Collins suffered a spinal injury in 2007 that damaged vertebrae in his upper neck and caused long-term nerve damage.
