London's Arsenal has become the champion of the English football Premier League (EPL). This became known after the conclusion of the matches of the penultimate 37th round, UNN reports.
Details
The "Gunners" were in a title race with Manchester City until the end of the season. Before the 37th round, their lead was 2 points.
After beating Burnley 1-0, the Londoners were waiting for a slip-up from MC and they got it: the Manchester club drew 1-1 with Bournemouth, as a result of which Arsenal became unreachable for its competitors.
It should be added that this is Arsenal's first EPL championship title in 22 years. The last time the team became champions of England was in the 2003/04 season, when they finished the tournament without a single defeat.
Arsenal has won its 14th English league title (the 4th in the history of the EPL). Only two clubs have more championships: Liverpool and Manchester United have 20 each.
As a reminder
Earlier this month, London's Arsenal secured a narrow victory over Atletico Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final and guaranteed its place in the tournament final.
