EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Arsenal's Pablo Mari is seen in focused action during the UEFA Europa League Group B stage match against Rapid Wien, played behind closed doors at Emirates Stadium on December 3, 2020. The image captures the intensity and determination of the Spanish defender as he defends against an attack from the Austrian side. The empty stands of the iconic London stadium serve as a poignant reminder of the unprecedented challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic to the world of sport. The COVID-19 crisis has forced stadiums across the UK, and indeed the globe, to close their doors to fans, with government social distancing laws prohibiting large gatherings. This has resulted in a surreal scene where high-stakes football matches are played out in near silence, with only the sounds of the players, coaches, and stadium staff echoing through the empty stands. Despite the unusual circumstances, Mari and his Arsenal teammates have continued to give their all on the pitch, determined to secure a positive result in the competition. The UEFA Europa League represents a valuable opportunity for the Gunners to secure European football next season, as they currently find themselves languishing in the lower reaches of the Premier League table. This photograph, taken by Arsenal FC's official photographer Stuart MacFarlane, encapsulates the unique atmosphere of football in the age of the pandemic, and serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the beautiful game in the face of adversity.
