In this iconic photograph taken at Arsenal Stadium, Highbury in London on August 14,2005, Dutch footballing virtuoso Robin van Persie celebrates scoring the opening goal in Arsenal's 2-0 victory over Newcastle United in the FA Premier League. The goal was a pivotal moment in Van Persie's Arsenal career, marking his first league goal for the Gunners since joining from Feyenoord the previous summer for a fee of £2.75 million. The image captures the raw emotion and excitement of the moment, with Van Persie leaping into the air, arms outstretched, surrounded by jubilant teammates and ecstatic Arsenal fans. The Dutchman's goal set the tone for a dominant Arsenal performance, with Thierry Henry adding a second goal later in the game to secure all three points for the North London side. Van Persie's goal also marked the beginning of a remarkable period of success for Arsenal, who went on to finish the season as runners-up in the league, just one point behind Chelsea. The Dutchman would go on to become a key figure in the Arsenal team, scoring 132 goals in 278 appearances for the club before moving on to Manchester United in 2012. This photograph is a testament to the passion and excitement of football, and the thrill of scoring a crucial goal in a high-stakes league match. It is a moment that will be fondly remembered by Arsenal fans, and a reminder of the talent and impact that Robin van Persie brought to the team during his time at the Emirates.
