Arsenal’s celebrations as the newly-crowned Premier League champions carried on ahead of their final match of the season against Crystal Palace.

Before the game kicked off at Selhurst Park, Mikel Arteta’s side were greeted with a traditional guard of honour from Olivier Glasner’s Crystal Palace, who recently reached the Europa Conference League final.

This moment marked the culmination of a long journey for Arsenal, who finally ended their 22-year wait for the English top-flight title under Arteta’s leadership. The triumph was a testament to the Spaniard’s rebuilding process and the team’s consistency throughout the campaign.

On the final day, Arteta opted for a heavily rotated line-up, keeping key players fresh for their upcoming UEFA Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest. The sunny Sunday afternoon provided an ideal backdrop for the Gunners to celebrate their hard-earned success and mark the end of years of frustration for their supporters.

It was a symbolic afternoon at Selhurst Park — a fitting conclusion to Arsenal’s long road back to the top of English football and a celebration that encapsulated their resurgence under Arteta’s guidance.
