EDITORS COMMENTS
great photograph capturing a pivotal moment in Arsenal Football Club history: Thierry Henry scoring the first goal in a thrilling 2-3 comeback victory against West Ham United in the FA Premiership on January 2,2006, at Arsenal Stadium in Highbury, London. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Richard Pelham, showcases the intense focus and determination on Henry's face as he expertly deflects a shot from Robert Pires into the net. Henry, an Arsenal legend and one of the greatest players in the club's history, had already established himself as a prolific goalscorer and a key figure in Arsenal's attacking line. However, this goal, which came in the 75th minute, was particularly significant as it marked the start of a remarkable comeback from a 0-2 deficit. The crowd at Highbury erupted in jubilation as Henry's goal brought the team level, and the energy and excitement in the stadium were palpable. The team went on to score another goal just five minutes later, with Henry providing the assist for Dennis Bergkamp's strike. The victory was a testament to Arsenal's resilience and fighting spirit, and it kept them in the title race that season. This photograph is a reminder of the thrilling football played by Arsenal during the early 2000s and the iconic moments that made Henry a beloved figure among the fans. The image also highlights the skill and talent of both Henry and Pires, as well as the importance of teamwork and determination in achieving success on the football pitch.
