EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Arsenal Football Club legend Dennis Bergkamp bids farewell to Emirates Stadium in a testimonial match against his former team, Ajax, on July 22, 2006. The Dutch maestro spent eight successful years at Arsenal between 1995 and 2006, during which he scored 120 goals and helped the team win three Premier League titles and the FA Cup. The scene captures the emotional atmosphere of the evening as Bergkamp, wearing the Arsenal jersey with the number 10 on the back, takes a moment to soak in the adoration of the home crowd. The Emirates Stadium stands packed with fans, waving scarves and cheering in appreciation of their beloved hero. The opposing team, Ajax, lines up respectfully on the pitch, acknowledging the significance of the occasion. The match itself was a triumph for Arsenal, with a 2:1 victory over their Dutch rivals. The first half saw an own goal by Ajax's Thomas Vermaelen, followed by a second goal from Arsenal's Freddie Ljungberg. Ajax managed to pull one back in the second half, but it was not enough to deny Bergkamp and Arsenal the victory in his testimonial match. This photograph encapsulates the enduring bond between Bergkamp and Arsenal fans, as well as the pride and passion that comes with supporting a beloved football club. The image serves as a poignant reminder of Bergkamp's time at Arsenal and the impact he had on the team and its supporters.
