Thousands of Arsenal
fans braved the miserable weather to watch their team celebrate winning
the FA Cup for the second year running with an open top-bus parade on
the streets of North London.
Arsenal retained the trophy after thrashing Aston Villa 4-0 at Wembley on
30 May, with goals from Theo Walcott, Alexis Sanchez, Per Mertesacker
and Olivier Giroud ensuring a comfortable win for the Gunners. The
result means Arsenal are now the most successful side in FA Cup history
with 12 titles, whilst Arsene Wenger has become the first man since
George Ramsay to win the FA Cup six times.
The Gunners celebrated their
success with an open-top bus tour that travelled past crowds of fans on
its way from the Emirates Stadium to Islington Town Hall. Whilst on top
of the bus, Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere sung two expletive-laden
songs mocking the club's north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
