Great moment of triumph: Sylvain Wiltord's goal seals Arsenal's victory at Old Trafford (Credit: Stuart MacFarlane / Arsenal Football Club) In this electrifying image captured at Old Trafford on May 8,2002, Arsenal's Sylvain Wiltord revels in the joy of scoring the only goal in a hard-fought FA Barclaycard Premiership clash against Manchester United. The French international's strike proved decisive, securing a vital three points for Arsenal in their quest for the league title. The atmosphere inside Old Trafford was electric, with both teams vying for supremacy in what was a pivotal match in the 2001-02 season. Arsenal, led by their charismatic manager Arsène Wenger, were determined to maintain their title challenge, while Manchester United, under the stewardship of Sir Alex Ferguson, were equally resolute in their pursuit of victory. As the match wore on, it became clear that this encounter would be decided by a single moment of brilliance. That moment came in the 55th minute when Wiltord, with a cool and composed finish, slotted the ball past Manchester United's goalkeeper Roy Carroll, sending the Arsenal faithful into raptures. The image captures Wiltord's jubilant celebration, a testament to the elation felt by Arsenal fans as their team secured a precious victory against their arch-rivals. The Frenchman's goal not only boosted Arsenal's title hopes but also demonstrated their ability to perform under pressure, a trait that would serve them well in the final stretch of the season. This iconic photograph by Stuart MacFarlane from Arsenal Football Club encapsulates the passion, drama, and intensity of the beautiful game, making it a cherished memory for Arsenal supporters and a reminder of the team's rich history.
