Despite being at a disadvantage, Arsenal still rehearsed before the Premier League championship celebration program.
In the final round of this season’s Premier League, Arsenal faces Everton while Man City meets West Ham. Arsenal is ranked second in the table, 2 points behind leading Man City.
The championship chances of Mikel Arteta and his students are clearly much lower than Man City’s, but it seems that Arsenal fans don’t care about that and they still think about the possibility of the home team winning the championship.
That possibility will come true if Man City loses points against West Ham and Arsenal wins against Everton. At that time, with a better goal difference than Man City, Arsenal will be crowned champions for the first time since 2004.
To get ready for the celebration, Arsenal staff had already put up a banner with the words “Premier League Champions” at Emirates Stadium and they also set up a stage in the center circle of this stadium with the Premier logo. League included.
Through a video leaked online, Arsenal employees were seen standing in line and going up to the stage, just like the players do when going up to the podium to receive medals.
Previously, Arsenal had planned and applied for a license to hold a parade carrying the Premier League Cup.
Arsenal’s moves received many mixed comments. On social networks, many people think that Arsenal is hasty and mock this team. Arsenal’s celebration drills could be considered overconfident.
In reality, though, all parties involved need to be ready for the possibility of the Gunners being crowned. Although this possibility is difficult, it can still happen.
According to Daily Mail, not only Arsenal, but also Manchester City are prepared in case they win, including rehearsing the trophy ceremony.
The fact that two decisive matches took place at the same time also gave the Premier League organizers a “headache”. Premier League CEO Richard Masters decided to be at the Emirates to attend Arsenal’s match with Everton.
The tournament organizers prepared two identical cups, placing one at Emirates and Etihad stadiums. This is a common plan to be ready to respond to all scenarios regardless of which team is crowned last.
