In this iconic moment captured at The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on May 17, 2003, Arsenal Football Club's Robert Pires celebrates scoring the only goal in the FA Cup Final against Southampton. With the crowd roaring in the background, Pires lifts the FA Cup above his head in triumph, securing Arsenal's victory in the historic match. The FA Cup Final of the 2002-03 season was a highly anticipated clash between two formidable teams. Arsenal, led by their charismatic manager Arsène Wenger, had already clinched the Premier League title that season. Southampton, on the other hand, were determined to upset the favorites and claim their first major trophy since 1976. The match was a tense and closely contested affair, with both teams creating opportunities throughout. However, it was Arsenal who broke the deadlock in the second half when Pires, with a cool finish, put the ball past Southampton's goalkeeper Paul Jones. The goal proved to be the decisive moment in the game, and Arsenal held on to secure the FA Cup victory. This photograph captures the excitement and emotion of that pivotal moment, with Pires' jubilant celebration encapsulating the team's triumph and the fans' elation. It is a testament to Arsenal's dominance in English football during that era and a reminder of the thrill and passion that comes with the beautiful game.
