Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in the 2015-16 Barclays Premier League match between Bournemouth and Arsenal, as former Arsenal striker Benik Afobe returns to face his old team. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Stuart MacFarlane, shows Afobe in action for Bournemouth at The Vitality Stadium on February 7, 2016. Afobe, who spent two years at Arsenal between 2013 and 2015, joined Bournemouth in January 2016 for a reported fee of £10 million. His return to face his former club was an emotional one, and the crowd welcomed him with a mix of cheers and jeers. In the photo, Afobe is seen in his Bournemouth kit, focused intently on the ball as he prepares to take a shot. Arsenal defenders Laurent Koscielny and Gabriel Paulista are closing in, ready to challenge for the ball. The tension is palpable, and the outcome of the encounter is uncertain. This moment encapsulates the excitement and drama of a Premier League match, as well as the unique dynamics of a player returning to face his former team. Afobe's performance on the day was impressive, as he scored the equalizer in a 2-2 draw, demonstrating his class and skill in front of the Arsenal faithful. Overall, this photo is a testament to the passion and intensity of football, and the unpredictability of the beautiful game. It is a reminder that every match is an opportunity for redemption, and that former players always carry a special place in the hearts of their fans.
