Leicester Wins Premier League by PiccoloBrunelli(m): 9:58pm On May 02, 2016
The 2015/16 English League season will go down in history as one of the most unbelievable. Tottenham's draw tonight confirms Leicester as league winners.
adioolayi:
The Foxes, a pre-season favourite for relegation, have achieved
one of the most unlikely feats in English football history with
their first ever top-flight title
Leicester City have won the Premier League title to cap a
fairytale season in English football, with Tottenham's failure to
beat defending champions Chelsea meaning they can no longer
be caught.
Claudio Ranieri's men could have been crowned on Sunday
when they faced Manchester United at Old Trafford, but saw
their celebrations delayed after they drew 1-1 with Louis van
Gaal's men.
However, the Foxes are now Premier League champions after
Monday night's 2-2 scoreline at Stamford Bridge, having started
the 2015-16 as one of the bookmakers' favourites for relegation
with 5,000-1 title odds.
After narrowly avoiding relegation last season with a run of
seven wins from their remaining nine games, Leicester continued
that form into the new season under Claudio Ranieri with just
three defeats all season.
Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United,
considered the most likely title contenders, all suffered
inconsistent form to leave Leicester and Tottenham to fight for
the title in recent weeks.
The Foxes have not been positioned lower than second since
October and have held on to first place consistently since
January, holding off the challenge of Spurs to clinch a first ever
top-flight crown.
Last Monday's 1-1 draw for Tottenham against West Brom
brought Leicester to within three points of sealing their unlikely
title win, but now Spurs' collapse at Stamford Bridge has settled
the season with two matches to play
