EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a pivotal moment in the 2006-2007 FA Premiership match between Arsenal and Portsmouth at Emirates Stadium. The image features two key players, Robin van Persie of Arsenal and Niko Kranjcar of Portsmouth, locked in a fierce battle for possession of the ball. Van Persie, then a young and promising striker for the Gunners, is shown in a determined and focused stance, eyes on the prize as he attempts to regain control of the ball from Kranjcar. The Croatian midfielder, known for his skill and creativity, is seen in mid-stride, trying to evade the Dutch international's challenge. Despite Arsenal's dominance in the match, Portsmouth managed to hold their ground and secure a 2-2 draw. Van Persie scored one of Arsenal's goals in the first half, while Kranjcar netted one for Portsmouth in the second. The result kept Arsenal in the title race, while Portsmouth continued their impressive form under Harry Redknapp. This photo serves as a reminder of the intense competition and skill on display in the FA Premiership during that era. Both players went on to enjoy successful careers, with Van Persie becoming a legend at Arsenal before moving on to Manchester United and Turkish giants Fenerbahçe, while Kranjcar represented clubs such as Tottenham Hotspur, Queens Park Rangers, and HNK Rijeka.
