Arsenal fans had been dreaming of this moment for over two decades, and finally, on Tuesday, May 19th, the London club was crowned champions of England for the first time since 2004. This victory came as their rival, Manchester City, settled for a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth, surprising sixth in the Premier League. With a four-point lead before the final matchday, Mikel Arteta’s men cannot be caught on Sunday, succeeding Liverpool and clinching their 14th English title. Over the past three seasons, they had finished in second place twice, falling short to Manchester City in 2023 and 2024. Arsenal capped off a tough season in style, thanks to their solid defense outperforming rivals who were sometimes less successful. As the season draws to a close, Arsenal’s trophy cabinet could see more additions as they gear up to face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final on May 30th.
