EDITORS COMMENTS
Great moment of football history captured in this image as William Gallas scores the winning goal for Arsenal against Portsmouth in the Barclays Premier League on December 28, 2008, at Emirates Stadium in London. The French international center-back, then 32 years old, rose above Portsmouth's goalkeeper David James to head the ball into the net, securing a crucial three points for the Gunners in their pursuit of the league title. Gallas had joined Arsenal in the summer of 2008 after a successful spell at Chelsea, and this goal marked his first league goal for his new team. The atmosphere in the stadium was electric as Arsenal fans celebrated the goal, with Gallas leading the team's charge towards the corner flag to acknowledge the support of the home crowd. The Arsenal defense, including Gallas, had been under pressure throughout the match, but they held firm to keep a clean sheet and secure the victory. The goal was a testament to Gallas's aerial prowess and his ability to read the game, as well as Arsenal's teamwork and determination to come out on top. This image captures the intensity and excitement of a pivotal moment in the match, with Gallas's focused expression and James's outstretched arms in vain trying to prevent the goal. The contrasting colors of the Arsenal and Portsmouth kits add visual interest to the image, while the empty seats in the background emphasize the importance of the goal in the context of the game. Overall, this photograph is a great representation of the passion and drama of professional football.
