Despite a VAR recommendation for disallowance, Kai Havertz netted the winning goal for Arsenal in the 89th minute.
Everton dealt a blow to Arsenal’s title hopes as Manchester City secured the championship. Arsenal’s chance to secure the title hinged on a victory against Everton and a potential Manchester City loss to West Ham. Although Takehiro Tomiyasu managed to level the scoreline following Idrissa Gueye’s opener, Arsenal’s aspirations dwindled as Manchester City quickly gained a commanding lead at Etihad Stadium. The early surge from City effectively dashed Arsenal’s hopes of claiming the title.
Arsenal encountered obstacles in their quest for victory, including Bukayo Saka’s absence due to injury and Jordan Pickford’s remarkable saves denying Gabriel Martinelli. Despite the energy from Tomiyasu’s goal and rumors of a potential West Ham comeback, Rodri’s goal for City dashed Arsenal’s hopes. The emotional rollercoaster of the title race was evident, leaving Arsenal just short of the coveted Premier League trophy.
Meanwhile, Everton’s defeat did not dampen their competitive spirit, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s threat on the counter and a solid defensive display against Arsenal’s dominance. Although facing uncertainties, Everton’s recent form under Sean Dyche offers optimism for the future, despite their defeat on the final day.
The match was officiated by referee Michael Oliver, ensuring fair play and adherence to the rules. A crowd of 60,312 spectators filled the stadium, adding to the electrifying atmosphere of the event.
