EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in Arsenal's 2007-08 UEFA Champions League quarterfinal second leg match against Liverpool at Anfield. In this image, Abou Diaby (#18, Arsenal) is seen celebrating after scoring Arsenal's first goal, while Xabi Alonso (#15, Liverpool) applies pressure from behind. The tension is palpable as both players lean in, with Diaby's teammates and Liverpool players looking on. This goal came at a crucial time in the game, as Liverpool held a 3-0 lead from the first leg and were looking poised to eliminate Arsenal from the competition. However, Diaby's strike in the 53rd minute, followed by goals from Eduardo and Adebayor, turned the tide in Arsenal's favor. They went on to win the match 4-3, and although Liverpool managed to score another goal, Arsenal progressed to the semifinals on away goals. This goal was a significant one for Diaby, who had only joined Arsenal the previous summer from Ajax. It marked his first goal for the club in a competitive match and demonstrated his potential as a valuable addition to the team. The atmosphere at Anfield that night was electric, and this photo perfectly encapsulates the intensity and excitement of the Champions League quarterfinals.
