great photograph capturing the excitement and intensity of English football as Mikel Arteta, then an Everton midfielder, celebrates scoring a dramatic penalty in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Portsmouth on May 5,2007. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Keith Williams, perfectly encapsulates the emotion and tension of the moment as Arteta raises both arms in triumph, surrounded by jubilant teammates and Everton fans in the stands. This iconic moment came in the final match of the 2006-07 Premier League season, with Everton needing a win to secure a European qualification spot. Portsmouth, meanwhile, were fighting to avoid relegation. With the score tied 2-2, Arteta was brought down in the box, and he stepped up to take the resulting penalty. His cool finish sent the ball into the back of the net, sending the Goodison Park crowd into raptures. The victory was a significant one for Everton, as it secured their place in the UEFA Cup for the following season. It was also a memorable moment for Arteta, who went on to become a key player for the Toffees and later became their manager in 2019. This photograph is a testament to the passion and drama of football, and it serves as a reminder of the thrilling matches and moments that have defined Everton's history. It is a must-have for any Evertonian's collection, and a great addition to any football fan's wall.
