EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thrilling image captured at Wembley Stadium on August 6,2017, Arsenal's Per Mertesacker and Chelsea's Michy Batshuayi come face to face during the FA Community Shield match between the two Premier League giants. The tension in the air is palpable as the two teams battled it out for the first silverware of the 2017-18 season. Despite an evenly matched first half, it was Chelsea who took the lead through Batshuayi's header in the 52nd minute. However, Arsenal refused to give up and equalized through Alexandre Lacazette's goal in the 68th minute. The game ended in a 1-1 stalemate, and it was time for the deciding factor - the penalty shootout. Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech saved two Chelsea penalties, while Per Mertesacker, making his final appearance for the Gunners, scored the decisive penalty to secure a 4-1 victory for Arsene Wenger's side. This iconic moment marked the end of an era for Mertesacker, who retired from professional football at the end of the season. Batshuayi, on the other hand, continued to impress for Chelsea, scoring crucial goals throughout the campaign. This photograph, captured by Arsenal Football Club's official photographer David Price, encapsulates the intensity and drama of a classic London derby, with two of its most prominent figures locked in a tense standoff. The FA Community Shield may not be a league title, but it is a valuable opportunity for teams to stake their claim for the season ahead, and this image perfectly represents the determination and passion that both Arsenal and Chelsea brought to the table.
