EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing a poignant moment during the Premier League match between Manchester City and Chelsea, held at Etihad Stadium on December 3,2016. The photo features Willian of Chelsea, wearing a black armband as he celebrates scoring his team's second goal. This tribute was in honor of the victims of the tragic plane crash involving the Brazilian football club, Chapecoense. The Chapecoense team was on their way to Colombia for the final of the Copa Sudamericana when their plane crashed on November 28,2016, leaving 71 people dead, including 19 players, coaching staff, and other team officials. The news of the disaster shocked the football world, and tributes poured in from clubs and fans around the globe. In this photo, Willian pays tribute to the victims by wearing the black armband, a gesture of mourning and respect. The image captures the somber mood of the moment, contrasting with the excitement and energy typically associated with scoring a goal. It serves as a reminder of the human side of sports, where moments of triumph are often accompanied by moments of tragedy. The 2016-17 season was a difficult one for Chelsea, who were dealing with their own share of challenges on and off the pitch. However, this moment of solidarity with Chapecoense shows the power of football to bring people together in times of grief and to pay tribute to those who have been lost. Overall, this image is a powerful reminder of the human element of sports and the importance of coming together to support each other in times of need.
