Great image capturing the determination and focus of Arsenal's Granit Xhaka during the intense battle at Empty Turf Moor in the Premier League 2020-21 season. The Swiss international midfielder stands alone on the pitch, surrounded by the empty seats of Burnley's stadium, a stark reminder of the unusual circumstances under which this match was played. As the coronavirus pandemic continued to impact the world, stadiums around the UK were forced to remain under strict restrictions, with government social distancing laws prohibiting fans from attending live sporting events. This meant that games were played behind closed doors, creating an eerie and surreal atmosphere for players and staff alike. Despite the lack of fans and the unusual setting, Xhaka and his Arsenal teammates remained fully committed to the task at hand. In this moment, Xhaka is seen deep in thought, analyzing the situation on the pitch and preparing to make his next move. His intense concentration and steely gaze convey a sense of resilience and determination, reflecting the challenges and uncertainties that both Arsenal and the wider football community have faced during these unprecedented times. This powerful image, captured by Arsenal FC's official photographer David Price, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring spirit of football and the resilience of its players, even in the face of adversity. It is a testament to the game's ability to provide moments of excitement, drama, and inspiration, even in the most challenging of circumstances. Overall, this photo captures the essence of the 2020-21 Premier League season, a time of uncertainty and adaptation, but also of determination, focus, and the unwavering passion of football fans and players alike.
