Arsenal Win Premier League Title as What Did Arsenal Win Returns
Arsenal answered what did arsenal win by lifting the Premier League trophy after a comfortable victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. It was their first championship since 2004, and the final whistle ended a wait that had run through multiple seasons before the presentation began on the pitch.
Selhurst Park Trophy Moment
Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke scored the goals that set up the celebration, while Crystal Palace’s late response came only through Jean-Philippe Mateta. Arsenal’s players were then handed the trophy at Selhurst Park, turning the final day into a title ceremony rather than just a routine finish.
Before kickoff, Palace gave Arsenal a guard of honour. That scene framed the afternoon before the match settled into the result Arsenal needed, with Max Dowman also making club and league history by becoming the youngest player to start a Premier League game at 16 years and 144 days old.
Arteta Looks Toward Budapest
Mikel Arteta spent the post-match celebration in the middle of it, embracing his wife on the pitch before shifting the focus to what comes next. “We already talked about what we have to do in Budapest, how we’re going to use all the incredible energy that we’re all carrying towards that final” he said, with Arsenal set to face Paris Saint-Germain in Saturday’s Champions League final.
He added: “We can’t wait to write a new chapter in the history of our club and win the Champions League.” For Arsenal, the league title is already secured; the next objective sits in Budapest, where the season’s biggest match now waits.
Glasner’s Palace Farewell
Oliver Glasner’s last home match in charge of Palace ended with a lap of honour and a message to supporters after he had already led the club through an emotional end to the season. “I came here as a stranger and now after two years I feel like I’m a south Londoner” he said, before adding, “I’ve already rejected many offers” and “I’m not open for talks. Now I feel responsible to be 100% focused on Crystal Palace.”
Steve Parish asked supporters for “for five minutes of quiet” after congratulating Arsenal on the pitch, and Palace’s own European attention now shifts to Leipzig on Wednesday for the Conference League final against Rayo Vallecano. Arsenal leave Selhurst Park as champions; Palace leave with one final home send-off and a shorter road to their next final.
