Great photo capturing the intense football rivalry between Granit Xhaka and Xherdan Shaqiri during the Premier League match between Arsenal and Stoke City on May 13, 2017, at Bet365 Stadium in Stoke on Trent, England. The image shows Xhaka of Arsenal and Shaqiri of Stoke locked in a tense moment after the final whistle, with both players wearing determined expressions. Xhaka and Shaqiri, both Swiss internationals, have a long-standing football rivalry that dates back to their days in the Swiss Super League, where they played for Basel and FC Basel 1893 respectively. Their competitive nature and skill on the pitch made for some memorable matches between the two teams. When Xhaka joined Arsenal in 2016, the possibility of a renewed rivalry in the Premier League was highly anticipated by fans of both clubs. And true to form, the two midfielders did not disappoint, with several key moments between them throughout the season. In this particular match, Arsenal emerged as the victors, with a 1-0 win, thanks to a goal by Olivier Giroud. But the real drama came off the pitch, as Xhaka and Shaqiri exchanged words and gestures after the game, reflecting the intense passion and competitiveness that drives these two talented players. The photo captures the raw emotion and intensity of professional football, as well as the enduring rivalry between these two Swiss football stars. It's a moment that will be remembered by fans of both teams for years to come.
