Arsenal fans pack London streets for victory parade

Arsenal supporters turned parts of London red on Sunday as thousands gathered to celebrate a remarkable season for both the club's men's and women's teams.

Flares, smoke and chants filled the streets as open-top buses carried players through the capital.

The men's side returned from Budapest after falling to Paris Saint-Germain in a penalty shootout in the Champions League final. Despite that setback, fans had plenty to celebrate. Arsenal secured their first Premier League title in 22 years after Manchester City's draw with Bournemouth left Mikel Arteta's team with an uncatchable lead at the top of the table. The triumph places this squad alongside some of the club's most celebrated sides.

A second bus carried Arsenal's women's team, who marked their FIFA Women's Champions Cup victory from February. Messages of congratulations came from political leaders, while celebrations spread far beyond north London as supporters gathered across the UK and abroad.
