On this day in 2004, Arsenal became "The Invincibles" after completing an entire Premier League season without losing a single game.
Having clinched the title on enemy soil by drawing at Tottenham in late April, Arsene Wenger's men reached the last day still boasting an unblemished top-flight record.
Leicester City were the visitors to Highbury, seeking to become the ultimate party poopers.
When Paul Dickov put the Foxes ahead, there was a genuine fear the hosts would fall at the final hurdle.
But then, Thierry Henry levelled from the penalty spot and Patrick Vieira secured the win as Arsenal rounded off an unbeaten Premier League campaign.
After the 2003-04 season, Arsenal's unbeaten run stretched to a record 49 games. It is the longest-ever unbeaten run in Premier League history.
