Arsenal became English champions for the first time in 22 years
Martin Odegaard lifted the English Premier League trophy high on Sunday afternoon, as reported by Zamin.uz.
The London club, nicknamed the Gunners, won the national championship in a convincing manner for the first time after a twenty-two-year wait. Under the guidance of Mikel Arteta, the team traveled to Selhurst Park in the final round of the season and defeated their opponents 2-0.
As a result, London's team pulled seven points clear of their closest rivals, Manchester City, in the standings and secured the title well before the season's end, according to Goal.com.
During the match, Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring in the 42nd minute, and after the break, Noni Madueke doubled the lead to solidify the team's dominance. Although Jan-Philip Mateta managed to score a consolation goal for the visitors, it did nothing to dampen Arsenal's celebratory mood.
After the final whistle, the players hoisted coach Mikel Arteta into the air, celebrating the victory with great joy. The Spanish specialist emphasized that this success was the well-deserved fruit of long-awaited and hard work.
Another unique record was set in this historic match: Coach Mikel Arteta decided to start sixteen-year-old Max Dowman in the starting lineup.
As a result, Dowman became the youngest player in English Premier League history to debut in the starting XI at the age of sixteen years, one hundred, and forty-four days. Experts believe this bold move signals a bright future for the club.
Despite the victory, an unexpected loss occurred in the champions' ranks: Noni Madueke, the scorer of the second goal, suffered an injury late in the game and was forced to leave the pitch.
He is now working to recover in time for the Champions League final next week. For Arsenal fans, this triumphant campaign will be etched in golden letters as the first title following an unbeaten season—their first since the 2003-04 Invincibles.
The club's achievement was met with widespread joy and celebration across London.
