EDITORS COMMENTS
great photo capturing a pivotal moment in Arsenal Football Club's 2019-2020 season, as Mikel Arteta coaches his team against Liverpool amidst the unprecedented challenges posed by the global pandemic. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer David Price, showcases an empty Emirates Stadium, a stark contrast to the usual sea of passionate fans that fill the stands. The pandemic had brought football to a standstill, with all matches being played behind closed doors, and this photograph encapsulates the surreal atmosphere that engulfed the sporting world. Arteta, wearing a protective mask, is seen intently discussing tactics with his players during a drinks break, demonstrating his unwavering determination to lead his team through these uncertain times. The scene is further emphasized by the absence of the roaring crowd, which is typically a source of inspiration and energy for players. Instead, the silence is broken only by the sound of the players' voices and the occasional instructions from their coach. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the resilience and adaptability required in the face of adversity, both on and off the pitch. Despite the challenges, Arsenal and other clubs continued to push forward, showcasing the enduring spirit of football and the unwavering commitment of players and coaches to their craft. This photograph is a testament to their perseverance and the indomitable nature of the beautiful game.
