Arsenal are Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years after Manchester City’s draw with Bournemouth handed the Gunners an unassailable lead at the top of the table.
City’s failure to win at the Vitality Stadium sealed the title for Mikel Arteta’s side, triggering jubilant scenes across North London well before Arsenal’s final game of the season against Crystal Palace.
The decisive moment in the title race came days earlier, when Kai Havertz netted the only goal against Burnley — converting from a Bukayo Saka corner — to put Arsenal five points clear. City needed a win to stay alive; they couldn’t deliver it.
Arsenal finish with 82 points, four ahead of City, claiming their first league crown since the legendary 2003/04 Invincibles season under Arsène Wenger — the last time the club went an entire campaign unbeaten.
As for Bournemouth, the draw extended their unbeaten run to 17 league games, a sequence that has earned the Cherries a place in European football for the first time in the club’s history.
