EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing the pre-match routine of Arsenal's goalkeeper, Bernd Leno, ahead of the UEFA Europa League Quarter Final match against Slavia Praha at Emirates Stadium in London, England. The photograph, taken by Arsenal FC's official photographer David Price, showcases the empty stands and the somber atmosphere that has become the new normal in European football due to the ongoing Coronavirus Pandemic. With government social distancing laws in place, stadiums across Europe have been devoid of fans, resulting in games being played behind closed doors. The absence of the passionate supporters is palpable in this photograph, as Leno goes through his warm-up drills, with only the bare essentials present – the pitch, the goalposts, and the goalkeeper's equipment. The 2020-21 Arsenal season has been an unprecedented one, marked by numerous challenges both on and off the field. The team, led by manager Mikel Arteta, has had to adapt to the ever-changing circumstances, focusing on their performance and maintaining a strong team spirit. This image encapsulates the resilience and determination of Arsenal FC as they continue their journey in the UEFA Europa League, striving for success amidst the uncertainties brought about by the pandemic. Despite the lack of fans, the passion for the beautiful game remains, as evidenced by the commitment and focus of players like Bernd Leno. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of football and the unwavering dedication of the players, who continue to entertain and inspire us all.
