Arsenal made Liverpool wait to be crowned Premier League champions as Leandro Trossard inspired a 4-0 win that pushed Ipswich to the brink of relegation on Sunday.
Mikel Arteta’s side cruised to their first victory in three league games thanks to Trossard’s double and goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri at Portman Road.
Ipswich played more than half the match with 10 men after Leif Davis was sent off for a crude lunge on Bukayo Saka.
Second-placed Arsenal are 10 points behind leaders Liverpool, who need six points from their remaining six games to be crowned English champions for a record-equalling 20th time.
Liverpool could have won the title at Leicester on Sunday if Arsenal had lost to Ipswich, but while it is only a matter of time before Arne Slot’s men lift the trophy, the Gunners have their own holy grail to chase.
Arsenal have reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time since 2009, booking a clash with Paris Saint-Germain after eliminating holders Real Madrid in the Bernabeu on Wednesday.
Their 5-1 aggregate triumph against the most successful club in Champions League history was a significant statement as they look to win the tournament for the first time.
