In this photograph, the Arsenal and Newcastle United teams come together for the traditional pre-match handshake at Arsenal Stadium, Highbury, London, on August 14,2005. The FA Premier League fixture between these two storied English football clubs promised an exciting encounter, and the tension was palpable as the players prepared to take to the pitch. The sun cast a golden glow over the lush green turf, illuminating the crisp autumn air as the Arsenal squad, dressed in their iconic red and white stripes, lined up opposite their Newcastle United counterparts in their black and white stripes. The players exchanged warm greetings and words of sportsmanship before the referee's whistle signaled the start of the game. Arsenal, fresh off a successful 2003-04 season where they secured the Premier League title, were eager to defend their crown.
