EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in Arsenal's Europa League campaign during the 2020-21 season. In this image, we see Nicolas Pepe of Arsenal executing a perfect chip over Slavia Prague's goalkeeper Ondrej Kolar, scoring the only goal during the UEFA Europa League Quarter Final First Leg match at an empty Emirates Stadium. The pandemic's impact on sports is evident as the photograph shows the stadium devoid of fans, with strict government social distancing laws prohibiting spectators from attending live events. The usually bustling Emirates Stadium stands silent, a stark contrast to the electric atmosphere that typically fills the venue during matches. Pepe's goal proved crucial as Arsenal secured a narrow 1-0 victory over their Czech opponents, setting the stage for an exciting return leg in Prague. This goal not only marked an important step towards advancing in the competition but also served as a reminder of the resilience and determination of the team and their fans in the face of unprecedented challenges. Stuart MacFarlane, Arsenal Football Club's official photographer, expertly captured this moment, providing fans with a snapshot of history that encapsulates the unique circumstances surrounding this Europa League campaign. The image serves as a testament to the power of sports and the enduring spirit of Arsenal Football Club.
