London's Arsenal, which made it to the Champions League final early, with one round to go, became the English Premier League champion for the first time since 2004.
VIDEO OF THE DAY
This became known after the Gunners' main competitor Manchester City lost points at Bournemouth (1:1), and Pep Guardiola's team fell 4 points behind the leader.
Arsenal players watched the broadcast from Bournemouth at the club's base and after the final whistle, like their fans at their home stadium, Highbury, gave vent to their emotions.

For the former club of Ukrainians Oleg Luzhny and Oleksandr Zinchenko, this title was the 14th in the Premier League. Only Liverpool and Manchester United have won the English championship more often than Arsenal (20 times each).
By the way, the Spanish coach of the Londoners, Mikel Arteta, at 44 years and 54 days, became the youngest manager to win the Premier League in the last 20 years. Only Portuguese Jose Mourinho, who won twice with Chelsea (at 42 years and 94 days in the 2004/2005 campaign and at 43 years and 93 days in the 2005/2006 campaign), did so at a younger age.

We would like to add that Arsenal's championship parade in London will take place on May 31, the day after the Gunners' decisive battle with PSG in the Champions League in Budapest.
Previously, “FACTS” reported that Barcelona defeated Real Madrid and became the champion of Spain ahead of schedule.
