EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing the jubilant moment between Arsenal teammates Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as they celebrate Pepe's goal during the UEFA Europa League Quarterfinal match against Slavia Prague at an empty Emirates Stadium on April 8, 2021. Amidst the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, government social distancing laws prohibited fans from attending live sports events, leading to games being played behind closed doors. Pepe, who joined Arsenal from Lille in 2019, scored the crucial opening goal for the Gunners in the first leg of the quarterfinal, sending the crowd (though none were present) into a frenzy. Aubameyang, Arsenal's captain and leading scorer, was on hand to celebrate with his teammate, embracing him in a heartfelt moment. Despite the absence of fans, the determination and passion of the players shone through, as they fought for a valuable victory in the European competition. The empty stands did little to dampen their spirits, and the camaraderie between Pepe and Aubameyang was a testament to the team's resilience and unity. The photo serves as a poignant reminder of the unique challenges faced by the sports world during the pandemic, but also highlights the enduring power of team spirit and the beauty of the game itself. Arsenal will look to build on this momentum as they continue their Europa League campaign, with the second leg against Slavia Prague set to take place in Prague on April 15.
