EDITORS COMMENTS
Great photo capturing a memorable moment in Arsenal's 2012-13 pre-season as Thomas Vermaelen scores the first goal against FC Cologne at Rhein Energie Stadium in Cologne, Germany. The Belgian defender, then a key player for the Gunners, leaps high above the Cologne defense to powerfully head the ball past the reach of goalkeeper Timo Horn. The goal marked an important moment in the build-up to the new season, providing a confidence boost for Arsenal fans and a sign of things to come. Vermaelen's goal was one of several pre-season strikes as Arsenal prepared for the challenges of the upcoming campaign. The image, expertly captured by Arsenal FC's official photographer Stuart MacFarlane, perfectly encapsulates the excitement and anticipation surrounding Arsenal's pre-season friendlies and the start of a new soccer season. The previous season had ended in disappointment for the Gunners, but this goal was a promising sign that better days were ahead. Overall, this photo is a must-have for any Arsenal fan's collection, reminding us of the thrill of soccer and the importance of every goal, no matter the competition.
