200 Premier League wins at Emirates Stadium
Our 2-1 win over Aston Villa on Wednesday was the 200th Premier League victory we’ve chalked up at Emirates Stadium.
The milestone victory came in the 307th league fixture at our venue, after we moved the short distance from Highbury back in 2006.
Our first league win at the stadium came at the third attempt – a 3-0 defeat of Sheffield United on September 23, 2006, following 1-1 draws against Aston Villa and Middlesbrough.
In fact, each of the first eight league games at the Emirates ended in either 1-1 draws or 3-0 wins. Our goalscorers in that first victory were William Gallas, Thierry Henry and a Phil Jagielka own goal (all three, coincidentally, share a birthday).
