In this iconic photograph taken at The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on April 5,2002, two footballing greats, Ashley Cole of Arsenal and William Gallas of Chelsea, face off against each other in the FA Cup Final. The previous season had seen intense rivalry between the two teams, with Arsenal and Chelsea battling it out in multiple matches, most notably a thrilling 4-4 draw at Stamford Bridge. As the 2001-2002 FA Cup Final commenced, the tension between the two London clubs was palpable. In this image, Cole, wearing the Arsenal jersey with the number 3 on the back, is seen closely marking Gallas, who wears the number 6 for Chelsea. The intensity of their gaze and the determination in their body language speak volumes about the significance of the encounter. Arsenal emerged victorious that day, with goals from Robert Pires and Sylvain Wiltord securing a 2-0 win. The triumph marked Arsenal's seventh FA Cup title and added to their impressive trophy cabinet. The match is remembered as a pivotal moment in the history of the North London derby, with Cole and Gallas's confrontation becoming a symbol of the fierce competition between the two teams. This photograph, captured by Stuart MacFarlane for Arsenal Football Club, immortalizes the moment when two of the greatest defenders of their generation went head-to-head in the most prestigious domestic cup competition in English football. The image is a testament to the passion, skill, and rivalry that exists between Arsenal and Chelsea, making it a must-have for any football fan's collection.
