In this poignant moment captured at the Emirates FA Cup Final between Arsenal and Chelsea on May 27, 2017, at Wembley Stadium in London, England, Arsenal Manager Arsene Wenger shares a heartfelt handshake with his CEO, Ivan Gazidis. The FA Cup Victory Handshake, as it came to be known, marked the end of an era for Arsenal Football Club as Wenger prepared to step down from his managerial role after 22 years. The image encapsulates the intense emotions of the day as Arsenal secured their third FA Cup title in four years, with a 2-1 victory over their rivals Chelsea. Wenger, a pioneer of modern football in England, led Arsenal to a record-breaking unbeaten league campaign in the 2003-04 season and numerous other accolades throughout his tenure. Gazidis, who had been with the club since 2009, played a crucial role in the club's operations and supported Wenger during his final years. The FA Cup Final represented not only a triumph for Arsenal but also a time for reflection and appreciation. Wenger's impact on the club and its fans was undeniable, and the handshake between him and Gazidis symbolized the deep bond between manager and executive, as well as the enduring legacy of Arsenal Football Club. This photograph by Stuart MacFarlane captures the essence of football, showcasing the passion, dedication, and camaraderie that define the beautiful game. The 2016-17 season, and particularly the Arsenal vs. Chelsea FA Cup Final, will forever be remembered in Arsenal's history as a time of triumph and transition.
