The tension between these North London rivals was palpable as both teams battled it out for supremacy. Almunia, the Arsenal goalkeeper, was a towering figure in Arsenal's defense that day. His heroics between the posts were instrumental in securing the crucial three points for the Gunners. In this image, Almunia's jubilant expression speaks volumes of the relief and excitement felt by the Arsenal squad and their fans.

This win was a significant one, not only for its importance in the league standings but also for the bragging rights it brought to the North London derby.
