Arsenal recorded an achievement that they had not done for 18 years


The Arsenal team completely outplayed Chelsea in the meeting between the two teams from the 34th round of the Premier League and deservedly won with 3:1. This was also the last game of the "gunners" against a London opponent, as the team led by Mikel Arteta did not lose against any of them during the regular season of the English championship.

Something that had not happened in the club's history since the 2004/2005 season. Even the "gunners" managed to record a double against most of their city opponents. In the meetings played in the English capital, Arsenal won 10 times and twice ended in a draw.

It was Chelsea that was beaten twice. In addition to the 3:1 victory yesterday, May 2 (Tuesday), Arsenal also won the first match at Stamford Bridge with 1:0. The other two city rivals that Arteta's men won both of their games against were Crystal Palace, who were beaten 4-1 and 2-0 respectively, and Fulham, who were beaten 2-1 and 3-0.

Against West Ham, Arsenal literally stumbled a few weeks ago and ended in a 2:2 draw, which was the beginning of their downfall on the way to losing the title. However, the first match in the autumn part of the championship ended with a victory for the "gunners" with a score of 3:1.

Arsenal also struggled against the sensation of the season, Brentford. In the first match against the "bees", Arteta's boys reached 2:2, but in the spring things were completely different and the "gunners" reached a classic of 3:0.

In the next round, Arsenal face Newcastle, chasing a must-have three points, because after the victory against Chelsea, the team regained the first place in the standings. The Londoners currently have 78 points from 34 games and lead by two on the second-placed Manchester City, who, however, have two games less and already control the fight for the title in their hands.
