The result at the Vitality Stadium confirmed Arsenal as champions ending the North London club’s painful 22-year wait for a league title. It is Arsenal’s first Premier League triumph since the famous “Invincibles” season of 2003/2004 under legendary manager Arsène Wenger.

The Gunners win only the second major trophy of Arteta’s reign, and fourth overall, including an FA Cup crown in 2020 and two community shields.
