The parade took place less than 24 hours after the club lost to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.<\/p>\n<p>But even after a season in which Arsenal won the league for the first time since 2004 and reached two cup finals, Arsenal fans were still in full party mode. The women&#8217;s team also took part in the celebrations celebrating their FIFA Women&#8217;s Champions Cup glory in February. The parade caused massive congestion on London&#8217;s Underground and trains, causing long delays and cancellations, and some stations, including Drayton Park, being shut down for the day.<\/p>\n<p>The parade lasted two-and-a-half hours, with Mikel Arteta&#8217;s players celebrating the much-awaited major trophy with jubilant supporters on the streets of Islington.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"headline\">arsenal premier league trophy<\/h3>\n<p class=\"withoutCaption\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"zoomEnabled\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/1200x712\/secondary\/PA-84800454-1-6951878.jpg?r=1780242427324\" alt=\"Declan Rice's message\" title=\"Declan Rice's message\" width=\"940\" height=\"558\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsCaption\">\n<p>Arsenal players parade through the streets of north London with the Premier League trophy aloft.<\/p>\n<p>Declan Rice said: &#8220;I have no words, I have lost my voice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love this team.
