EDITORS COMMENTS
This electrifying moment captures Per Mertesacker's jubilant celebration after scoring Arsenal's first goal in their thrilling 5-2 victory over arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the 2012-13 Barclays Premier League season. The German defender, who was making his 50th appearance for the Gunners, stunned the Emirates Stadium crowd and the Spurs team with a stunning strike from just outside the penalty area. The goal came in the 26th minute, and it was the catalyst for Arsenal's dominant performance against their North London rivals. Theo Walcott added a second goal just before halftime, and Lukas Podolski, Olivier Giroud, and Santi Cazorla all scored in the second half to secure a comprehensive victory for Arsene Wenger's side. The win was particularly sweet for Arsenal fans, as it came just a few weeks after a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Tottenham at White Hart Lane. The Gunners' victory moved them up to third place in the league table, while Spurs remained in sixth place. Mertesacker's goal was a reminder of the unexpected moments that make football so exciting. The defender, who was known for his solid defending and leadership qualities, had not scored a goal for Arsenal since his debut in 2011. But on this day, he showed that he had the ability to contribute to the team's attack as well. This photo print, taken by David Price for Arsenal Football Club, is a testament to the thrilling atmosphere and unpredictability of football. It captures the passion and intensity of the Arsenal-Tottenham rivalry and the excitement of a goal that turned the tide of the game in Arsenal's favor.
