Arsenal win Premier League title for first time in 22 years

Arsenal ended a 22-year title drought after Manchester City failed to win, and the club will finish the season as champions.

  • On Tuesday, Arsenal clinched the Premier League title for the first time in 22 years after Manchester City failed to defeat Bournemouth, ending a two-decade wait for the North London club.
  • Manchester City required a win to narrow the gap to two points and keep the title race alive until Sunday; a 39th-minute goal from Bournemouth's Junior Kroupi put City behind, and Erling Haaland's stoppage-time equalizer came too late.
  • Coach Mikel Arteta guided Arsenal to their 14th English title, their first since the 2003-04 'Invincibles' season under Arsene Wenger, after finishing as runners-up in each of the past three seasons.
  • Arsenal's final match against Crystal Palace on Sunday will be a celebratory affair, while the team prepares for the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain on May 30 for a potential first European title.
  • Since Arsenal's last title, Manchester United and Manchester City combined to win 13 of the next 21 league championships, ending two decades of Manchester dominance and marking a historic shift in English football's power structure.
