EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing the excitement and jubilation of the Arsenal team as they celebrate the first goal against Olympiacos during the UEFA Europa League Round of 16 match at an empty Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus, Greece, on March 11, 2021. The pandemic-enforced restrictions on stadium attendance resulted in the game being played behind closed doors, with no fans present to witness the action live. Martin Odegaard, wearing the number 21 jersey, is seen in the center of the celebration, surrounded by his teammates Hector Bellerin, Thomas Partey, Bukayo Saka, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Gabriel. The players' expressions of joy and relief are palpable, as they revel in the moment after scoring a crucial goal in the first leg of the competition. The empty stands and lack of spectators in the background serve as a stark reminder of the unprecedented challenges facing the world of sports during the pandemic. Despite the absence of fans, the passion and intensity of the game were not diminished, with both teams giving their all on the pitch. This photograph by Stuart MacFarlane from Arsenal Football Club beautifully encapsulates the spirit of competition and camaraderie among the players, even in the most unusual of circumstances. It is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the football community in the face of adversity.
