However, Arsenal reclaimed the FA Cup, thus becoming the most successful club in the history of the competition with twelve wins, comfortably beating Aston Villa 4–0 in the final. In Europe, despite being widely expected to reach the quarter-finals, being favourites in the Round of 16 tie against AS Monaco, Arsenal surprisingly losing the first leg 3–1, a scoreline which ultimately proved fatal over the course of the tie as despite a 2–0 away win, Arsenal were knocked out via away goals in the Round of 16 for the fifth consecutive year. In the second half of the season their form recovered massively, which included an eight-game winning run between February and April. At one stage, Arsenal were as low as eighth heading into early December. In the League an inconsistent first half of the season ended any realistic hopes for the title as Arsenal only won two out of their first eight games, with numerous injuries to important players. This season Arsenal participated in the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Community Shield and the UEFA Champions League. The 2014–15 season was Arsenal's 23rd season in the Premier League and 89th consecutive season in the top flight of English football.
