Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has described Arsenal's celebrations following their Champions League semi-final victory over Atletico Madrid as excessive. A festive atmosphere filled the Emirates Stadium after Mikel Arteta's side secured a spot in the final for the first time in 20 years. This is reported by Goal.com .
The Londoners, who celebrated a 2-1 aggregate win thanks to a solitary goal by Bukayo Saka, held a massive celebration with fans at the final whistle. However, Rooney, speaking as a Prime Video Sport pundit, urged the team to remain grounded, noting that no trophy has been won yet.
Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright took to social media to encourage fans to ignore the critics and enjoy this historic moment. According to him, football is cherished precisely for such important moments.
Former manager Arsene Wenger also commented on the situation, stating that celebrating the win is natural, but now all focus must shift to the final match and the Premier League title race.
