🎥 Remembering when Arsenal sealed the PL title at Old Trafford
🎥 Remembering when Arsenal sealed the PL title at Old Trafford With the 2025/26 Premier League fixtures announced earlier this week, it's worth remembering that Manchester United vs Arsenal remains one of the standout games on the calendar. In fact, Mikel Arteta's side will open their account at Old Trafford on August 17, and while the trip comes early in the campaign, it's a ground where Arsenal have previously won the Premier League.

Arsenal's No.11 then picked out Freddie Ljungberg with an exquisite pass, before firing home the rebound after his teammate's initial effort was saved by United goalkeeper Fabien Barthez It was a decisive goal at a crucial moment for the Gunners, who secured the title that day before lifting the trophy a week later at Highbury following a win over Everton.
