Arsenal become Premier League champions after 22 years

Martin Odegaard lifted the Premier League trophy high on Sunday afternoon. The "Gunners" celebrated their first title in a 22-year drought. Mikel Arteta's side visited Crystal Palace on the final matchday, securing a 2-1 victory. Thus, the London club finished 7 points clear of their closest rivals, Manchester City. According to Goal.com reports.

In the match, Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring in the 42nd minute, and after the break, Noni Madueke doubled the lead. Although Jean-Philippe Mateta scored a consolation goal for the hosts, it could not dampen Arsenal's celebrations. After the game, the players tossed manager Mikel Arteta into the air to celebrate in style. The Spanish tactician emphasized that this success was the result of long-awaited and hard work.

Another record was set in this historic match. Mikel Arteta fielded 16-year-old Max Dowman in the starting lineup. As a result, at 16 years and 144 days old, Dowman became the youngest player to debut in the starting XI in Premier League history. This indicates a bright future for the club.

Despite the victory, the champions suffered a setback. Second-goal scorer Noni Madueke left the pitch injured late in the game. He will now attempt to recover in time for next week's Champions League final. For Arsenal fans, this will go down in history as the first title since the "Invincibles" 2003-04 season.
