EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Alexis Lacazette triumphantly lifts his arms in the air after converting a decisive penalty kick during the Premier League clash between Leicester City and Arsenal, on February 28, 2021. The game took place under the empty stands of The King Power Stadium in Leicester, England, as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The image captures the intensity and drama of professional soccer, despite the absence of the passionate fans who would normally fill the stadium. The atmosphere is somber yet focused, with the players' determination palpable as they give their all on the pitch. Lacazette's determined expression and the concentration etched on the faces of his teammates and opponents underscore the importance of every moment in a high-stakes match. The photograph, taken by Arsenal FC's official photographer Stuart MacFarlane, provides a poignant reminder of the unique challenges posed by the pandemic to the world of sports. The empty stands and strict health and safety protocols have transformed the landscape of soccer, with games being played behind closed doors and fans relying on digital platforms to follow their teams' progress. Despite these challenges, the game goes on, and the passion and commitment of the players remain undiminished. Lacazette's goal, and the moments leading up to it, serve as a testament to the enduring power of soccer to bring people together, even in the most trying of times. This image is a powerful reminder of the resilience and adaptability of the sport and its fans, and a glimpse into the surreal world of behind-closed-doors soccer in the era of the coronavirus pandemic.
