Arsenal had a brilliant weekend against Hull City to triumph from 2 goals down for a 3-2 win in Saturday’s match. This is Arsenal’s 11th FA Cup victory, and first trophy in 9 years for the Gunners’. 2014 FA Cup Champions, Arsenal celebrated with thousands of fans gathered around the streets of north London when an open-top bus parade set off from the club’s Emirates Stadium at 12:00 BST.
Football fans also stand a chance to win Arsène Wenger’s dugout chair signed by the man himself. Since Arsenal has fitted a new set of dugout seats at the Emirates, Citroen has converted boss’ old seat into a swivel desk chair for office/home use. This is the actual seat that Arsène Wenger has used during home fixtures from since 2010.
