Touching Reyes tribute
Putting football to the side, Arsenal and Sevilla paid a touching tribute to the late Jose Antonio Reyes before, during and after the Emirates Cup clash. This was the first meeting between the two clubs since Reyes sadly died in a car accident in 2019 and they took the opportunity to show he remains in everybody's thoughts.
Before kick-off, both Mikel Arteta and Julen Lopetegui held up Reyes shirts - No.9 for the Gunners and No.10 for the La Liga outfit. In addition, there was a minute's applause for Reyes right before the game got underway, with a picture of him also shown on the big screen inside the Emirates Stadium.
