In this image, the focus is on Alex Hleb, the Belarusian midfielder who made history for Arsenal Football Club during the UEFA Champions League (UCL) match against Real Madrid at the iconic Santiago Bernabeu Stadium on February 21,2006. With a determined look in his eyes and a focused stance, Hleb stands out against the backdrop of the famed Spanish stadium, having just scored the only goal in a hard-fought 0:1 victory for Arsenal in the first knockout round of the competition. The previous season, Arsenal and Real Madrid had faced each other twice in the group stages, with both matches ending in thrilling draws. However, this time around, Arsene Wenger's men were determined to secure a win and advance to the next round. Hleb's goal, a brilliant strike from the edge of the box, silenced the Bernabeu crowd and gave Arsenal the edge they needed. The atmosphere in the stadium was electric, with both teams giving their all in a fiercely contested match. The Arsenal defense, led by Sol Campbell and Ashley Cole, held firm against the relentless Real Madrid attack, while Thierry Henry and Robert Pires created numerous chances up front. In goal, Jens Lehmann made several crucial saves to keep the clean sheet and secure the victory. This photo captures the intensity and drama of the UCL knockout stages, with Hleb's goal serving as a testament to Arsenal's resilience and determination. The image is a reminder of the memorable moments in Arsenal's history and the team's ability to rise to the occasion in Europe's premier club competition.
