In this electrifying moment captured at the Axa Stadium in Prague on August 15, 2007, Arsenal's Alex Hleb stands his ground against the formidable duo of Sparta Prague's Tomas Repka and Tomas Postulka during the first leg of the Champions League qualifier. The tension in the air was palpable as both teams battled it out for a place in Europe's premier club competition. Hleb, a skilled and versatile midfielder, was a key player for Arsenal during the 2007-08 season. With the Gunners leading 0-2, the Belarus international was determined to protect his team's advantage against the relentless pressure from Sparta Prague. Repka, a Czech international and a veteran defender, was known for his tough tackling and combative style. Postulka, the Sparta Prague goalkeeper, was equally determined to keep his team in the game and deny Arsenal a valuable away goal. As the three players clash in the center of the pitch, the intensity of the encounter is evident in their expressions and body language. Hleb's focused gaze and clenched jaw contrast sharply with Repka's defiant stance and Postulka's determined glare. Despite the challenges, Hleb manages to maintain possession and eventually leads an attack that results in a corner kick for Arsenal. The resulting set-piece ultimately leads to a goal, extending Arsenal's lead and putting them in a commanding position for the second leg. This image captures the raw emotion and intensity of a high-stakes Champions League qualifier, with three players giving everything they have to secure victory for their respective teams. The determination and focus on display from all three players make this a truly memorable moment in the history of Arsenal and Sparta Prague's Champions League encounters.
