After a dismal 2019-20 Premier League season, Arsenal fans were overjoyed after their team secured an important victory over London rivals Chelsea in the FA Cup final on Saturday. The North London club finished eighth in what was a topsy-turvy season for the Gunners, beating the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool, but losing to the relegation-threatened Aston Villa and Brighton and Hove Albion. 

With four goals in Arsenal’s last two fixtures, skipper Pierre-Emerick was undoubtedly the pick of the bunch, although Chelsea fans will be disappointed with the match officials for their unfair decisions, while ruing the loss of the in-form Cristian Pulisic and Cesar Azpilicueta. 

On that note, let’s have a look at the many reactions from Arsenal’s record 14th FA Cup trophy:
