In this iconic photograph, taken during the FA Cup Final at The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on May 17,2003, Robert Pires is captured in a moment of pure elation as he celebrates scoring the only goal in Arsenal's 1-0 victory over Southampton. The image perfectly encapsulates the excitement and tension of the final match of the FA Cup, with Pires' jubilant expression and outstretched arms reflecting the relief and joy felt by Arsenal fans after a hard-fought victory. The FA Cup Final of 2003 was a significant moment in Arsenal's history, as it marked the end of an impressive season for the team. Having already secured the Premier League title in the previous month, Arsenal were looking to add the FA Cup to their collection, making it a potential double-winning campaign. The team's determination and resilience were put to the test against Southampton, who put up a strong fight in the final. Pires' goal came in the second half, and it was a moment of brilliance that sealed the victory for Arsenal. The French midfielder received the ball from Thierry Henry, who had made a clever run into the box, and with a cool finish, Pires slotted the ball past Southampton's goalkeeper to give Arsenal the lead. The goal was a testament to the team's attacking prowess and their ability to create chances even in the most pressure-filled moments. The photograph of Pires celebrating with Henry is a reminder of the team spirit and camaraderie that defined Arsenal during this era. It is a moment that will forever be etched in the memories of Arsenal fans, and a symbol of the success and excitement that the team brought to football during the early 2000s.
