Paint the town red - Tens of thousands of Arsenal fans celebrate Premier League glory despite CL heartbreak

"Tens of thousands of Arsenal fans flocked to the streets of North London on Sunday to celebrate the team's first Premier League title in 22 years. Footage shows the Arsenal men's team holding aloft the trophy during the team's traditional bus parade celebration, as enthusiastic fans watch on. Arsenal women's team players can also be seen celebrating their FIFA Champions Cup trophy during the parade. "An amazing season. My heart was warm. I was here 22 years ago when we were parading. So it's so lovely to see us parade again," said supporter Antony. Arsenal lost to Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League Final on penalties in Budapest on Saturday evening, with the club magnanimous in defeat despite controversy over the integrity of officiating. Nevertheless, that loss did not dampen the historic win in the English top league. "The ref was appalling. Shocking. We got robbed," Arsenal fans explained. "It would have been nice to win Champions League as well, but it is what it is. We'll be back next year. I think this is just a start for Arsenal. We're definitely the team to beat next year," said fellow fan, Lee. All the major roads around Arsenal's Emirates Stadium were closed as the teams embarked on a two-and-a-half-hour route. People from across the country gathered in the city to witness history."
