Arsenal supporters gathered in north London on Sunday for a victory parade to celebrate the club's first Premier League title in 22 years, undeterred by the disappointment of losing the Champions League final to Paris Saint-Germain the previous night. The parade, which began near Islington Green, saw fans clad in red shirts filling streets and parks, with flares and chants marking the occasion.
The atmosphere was described as relaxed and friendly, with no reports of trouble. However, scenes in Paris were more chaotic, with over 400 arrests following PSG's Champions League triumph. The contrast highlighted the contrasting emotions for Arsenal fans, who chose to focus on their domestic success.
Meanwhile, Scotland's World Cup preparations were disrupted by an injury to midfielder Billy Gilmour, who suffered a knee injury in a friendly against Curacao. Manager Steve Clarke has called up 19-year-old Tyler Fletcher, son of former captain Darren Fletcher, as a replacement. Fletcher made his international debut in the same match and has impressed in training.
Elsewhere, Jesse Marsch named his Canada World Cup squad, expressing confidence it is the strongest the nation has ever assembled. Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo is also set to feature in the tournament, though questions remain over his form and selection.
