Arsenal have been crowned Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years after Manchester City failed to beat Bournemouth on Tuesday.
Champions in six of the previous eight seasons, Man City needed to win away at Bournemouth to narrow the gap to Arsenal to just two points and take the race to the final day of the season on Sunday.
However, a 39th-minute goal from Bournemouth’s Junior Kroupi put City behind and Erling Haaland’s stoppage-time equalizer came too late to force the winner they needed.
Arsenal’s final game of the campaign at Crystal Palace on Sunday will now be a purely celebratory affair.
It’s Arsenal 14th English title, putting them behind only Liverpool and Manchester United on 20, and their first since 2003-04 when the “Invincibles” went unbeaten under Arsene Wenger.
Arsenal have been runners-up in the league the past three seasons.
Mikel Arteta’s team also has reached the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain on May 30, when they will look to become European champions for the first time and cap what would be the club’s greatest ever season.
