Arsenal’s players didn’t need to wait until the final matchday to lift the Premier League trophy. With Manchester City facing Manchester United on Tuesday evening, the Gunners clinched their first English top-flight title since 2004 as City’s late equaliser at Bournemouth (1-1) secured the points they needed to seal the deal.
Under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta, Arsenal had spent the entire match nervously watching the scoreboard until Erling Haaland’s dramatic equaliser in stoppage time. The 1-1 draw at Vitality Stadium handed Arsenal the championship with a full day still remaining in the season.
In a celebratory video shared by the club across social media, the entire squad erupted in joy at the final whistle, embracing their hard-earned triumph together. With just one more league fixture to play this season — a home game against Crystal Palace on Sunday at 5 PM — the team now turns its attention to the UEFA Champions League final on May 30, where they will face Paris Saint-Germain.
The 2023-24 campaign has already been one of Arsenal’s most successful in recent memory, and this historic milestone marks a turning point for the North London club.
