The long wait is over as Arsenal won their first Premier League title in 22 years with defending champions Manchester City being held 1-1 by Bournemouth in their away game on Tuesday (May 19) night.
It is Arsenal's first title in the top flight of English football since 2004, when the "Invincibles" went unbeaten under Arsene Wenger.
Premier League: Arsenal edge closer to title with win over BurnleyPep Guardiola's men needed to win on England's south coast to keep the title race alive but fell short despite a late goal from Erling Haaland.
After finishing second for the past three seasons, Mikel Arteta's Gunners have finally made it over the line to end a six-year trophy drought.
Arsenal edged to the brink of the title with a 1-0 win over already relegated Burnley on Monday, which took them five points clear of City.
Needing victory to keep alive the race ahead of Sunday's season finale, City were undone by Eli Junior Kroupi's brilliant first-half strike at Vitality Stadium, extinguishing City's hopes of a seventh league title for Pep Guardiola in what is expected to be his final season after a glittering decade as manager.
Kroupi fired Bournemouth in front in the 39th minute when Adrien Truffert was played through down the left and he picked out the 19-year-old Frenchman, who took a touch before unleashing a brilliant curving shot just inside the far post past Gianluigi Donnarumma, who was rooted to the spot.
Haaland pulled back a goal deep in injury time, when Rodri's shot bounced off the post and dropped to the Norwegian, but the final whistle sounded seconds later to seal City's fate.
This season, Arsenal also broke the Premier League record for the number of goals scored from corners this season with Kai Havertz's winner against Burnley being the 18th.

Meanwhile, Arteta is one more win away from delivering the club's greatest ever season as Arsenal also plays Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League final at Budapest on May 30.
