EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in the UEFA Champions League match between Arsenal and PSV Eindhoven on March 7, 2007, at Emirates Stadium. The image features Emmanuel Adebayor of Arsenal in action, as he inadvertently contributes to an own goal for PSV's Alex. In the 1st Knock Out Round, 2nd Leg of the prestigious European competition, the score was delicately poised at 1-1, with both teams vying for an advantage that would carry them through to the next round. Adebayor, a Togolese international and a key player for Arsenal at the time, was involved in a controversial incident that would leave an indelible mark on the game. As Arsenal looked to extend their lead, Adebayor received the ball near the edge of the PSV penalty area. In an attempt to create space for a shot or a pass, he flicked the ball on with the outside of his right foot. However, the ball took an unexpected deflection off PSV's Alex, who was attempting to clear the danger, and found its way into the back of his own net. The own goal left the Arsenal faithful stunned, as their team was denied what seemed to be a hard-earned advantage. The incident, however, served as a reminder that football can be unpredictable and that even the most seemingly innocuous moments can have a profound impact on the outcome of a match. This photo stands as a testament to the excitement and drama that the UEFA Champions League brings, and the unpredictable nature of the beautiful game. Emmanuel Adebayor's controversial own goal remains a memorable moment in Arsenal's European history.
