EDITORS COMMENTS
In an unprecedented footballing season, Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored the first goal of the empty-stadium 2020-21 Arsenal campaign against Newcastle United at the Emirates Stadium in London. The image captures a jubilant Aubameyang celebrating his goal with his teammates, surrounded by an eerily quiet stadium devoid of fans. The coronavirus pandemic has drastically altered the landscape of sports, with strict restrictions enforced on stadiums across England. Government social distancing laws prohibited fans from attending games, resulting in the 2020-21 Premier League season being played behind closed doors. The photograph, taken by Arsenal FC's official photographer David Price, encapsulates the surreal atmosphere of the game. The usually bustling Emirates Stadium, known for its passionate fanbase, stands silent as Aubameyang and his teammates revel in their moment of triumph. Despite the absence of fans, the intensity and passion of the game remained undiminished. Aubameyang's goal, the first of many hoped-for victories in the season, marked a significant moment in Arsenal's history as they navigated the challenges posed by the pandemic. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the unique circumstances that defined the 2020-21 Arsenal season, and the resilience and adaptability of football in the face of adversity. Aubameyang's goal, though scored in an empty stadium, resonated with the Arsenal faithful, providing a glimmer of hope and excitement in uncertain times.
