A whole season undefeated, something that hasn't and may never be emulatedArsenal had already won the league title away at Tottenham, but they still had to worry about finishing the season invincible, without a single loss.

The best thing about the Arsenal side in 2004 was that they would never stop fighting. Despite going behind on occasions, they never looked like losing. The final game of the season epitomised how good they were, and how their fairy-tale was always going to come true.

Paul Dickov gave Leicester City a surprise lead at Highbury and they still led at half-time. However, the Gunners came out firing. Two minutes into the second half, Henry slotted a penalty the wrong side of goalkeeper Ian Walker after Ashley Cole was fouled and the result was only going one way from then onwards.

A moment of brilliance from Bergkamp unlocked Leicester’s defence and Vieira rounded Walker and passed into an empty net, confirming Arsenal would go a whole season without defeat.

It has been over 13 years since Arsenal last won a league title, 26 wins and 12 draws meant they were the first Premier League team to go a whole season unbeaten. This game at Highbury is one Arsenal fans would dream of re-living, a time that feels like forever ago.
