The image shows Arsenal players in high spirits as they celebrate their 3-0 victory over the Dutch side at Stadionweg in Alkmaar, Holland. This victory was a promising sign of things to come for the upcoming 2006-07 season. Arsenal had already showcased their formidable attacking prowess in their previous pre-season matches, but this win against AZ Alkmaar was particularly significant. The first half of the match saw Arsenal controlling the game, with Thierry Henry and Robert Pires leading the charge. Henry opened the scoring with a cool finish in the 24th minute, and Pires added a second just before halftime with a stunning strike from outside the box.
