Arsenal fans haven't witnessed such success in a long time.
Details: According to statistical portal Opta, yesterday's victory for London’s Arsenal over Atletico Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final at Emirates Stadium, with a score of 1-0, marked the Gunners’ 41st win of the current season.

This means that Arteta’s men have equaled a club record last achieved back in 1970. That season, Arsenal also secured 41 victories and went on to become champions of England, as well as winning the FA Cup.
Given that Arsenal still have home games to play this season, there's every chance this record could be broken—something that would etch Mikel Arteta’s name into Arsenal’s history in golden letters.
With three rounds remaining in the Premier League, Arsenal sit atop the table with 76 points and are set to play in the Champions League final for the first time in 20 years.
Reminder: Was the referee right? No penalty given after foul on Simeone
