UK: Arsenal players revel in FA Cup victory, taking home trophy for TWELTH time

Arsenal’s team were greeted with roars of appreciation from fans as their open-tour bus paraded through the streets of north London, Sunday, after beating Aston Villa in yesterday’s FA Cup final to take home the coveted trophy. Lifting the cup for all to see, fans clamoured around to show their support for Arsene Wenger’s side, with the Arsenal manager joining his team in the festivities. Kicking off the victory parade from the Emirates Stadium, the bus toured around Islington emblazoned in the Gunner’s characteristic red and white, before coming to a halt for a local party held in the area’s town hall. With goals from Theo Walcott, Alexis Sanchez, Per Mertesacker and Olivier Giroud, Arsenal finished Saturday’s match with a crushing 4-0 win at Wembley, breaking records by taking home the FA cup for the 12th time. Yesterday’s victory also makes it the sixth time the team has taken home the trophy under Arsene Wenger's leadership.
