EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing a powerful moment of solidarity and defiance in the empty Emirates Stadium as Arsenal's star striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, takes a knee during the Premier League match against Wolverhampton Wanderers on November 29, 2020. Amidst the backdrop of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, sporting stadiums in the UK have been forced to operate under strict restrictions, with government social distancing laws prohibiting fans from attending games in person. This poignant photograph encapsulates the spirit of the Black Lives Matter movement, which gained momentum following the death of George Floyd and other instances of police brutality against Black individuals. Aubameyang's bold gesture serves as a reminder of the ongoing fight for racial equality and social justice, even in the midst of unprecedented challenges. The empty stands of Emirates Stadium add an eerie and surreal atmosphere to the scene, highlighting the stark contrast between the usual vibrant energy of a live football match and the quiet stillness of a stadium devoid of fans. The image is a testament to the resilience of the sport and the determination of athletes to use their platforms to make a difference in the world. David Price's expert composition and lighting bring out the intensity and emotion of the moment, making for a striking and memorable photograph that encapsulates the spirit of the times. This image is a powerful reminder of the importance of standing up for what is right, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
