They may not have played as brilliantly as the famous "Invincibles" of 2004, but this generation of Arsenal deserves a deep bow, and as of tonight, they are immortal too.

Bournemouth drew with Manchester City (1:1) and congratulated the "Gunners" on their title - Arsenal are champions of England, for the first time since the aforementioned 2004. The festivities in north London can begin a round before the end of the Premier League.

It was also a sad end to the great story of Pep Guardiola after 10 unforgettable years at City.

On the other hand, Andoni Iraola's "cherries" will be playing in Europe for the first time, but perhaps it remains a regret that they conceded a goal from City in the 95th minute, thus destroying their dream of the Champions League, as they would have come within a point of fifth-placed Liverpool.

The moment of magic that put an end to the championship run happened in the 39th minute - Elie Junior Krupi, the new football prodigy from France, masterfully placed and checked Danluigi Donnarumma.

City tried after that, but Bournemouth missed better chances. All Pep Guardiola's men managed was a goal from Erling Haaland deep into injury time.

Arsenal has erased one of its darkest periods and 22 years without a title, and can now dream of making history and its first European title - the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain awaits them in Budapest on May 30th.

Mikel Arteta can finally breathe a sigh of relief, the trust he has received has finally paid off. During his seven years at the Emirates, he has made Arsenal a stable club, and now he has been deservedly crowned. The Gunners are champions of England for the 14th time - only the still untouchable Manchester United and Liverpool remain ahead.
