    LEICESTER CITY ARE CHAMPIONS!

    LEICESTER CITY ARE CHAMPIONS!

    Claudio Ranieri and his men have made history, allowing Leicester City to win their first Premier League, their first ever Division One title, 132 years after the Foxes were founded. 

    From relegation battlers to Champions in one year, it's been a heck of a journey. Yesterday's draw at Old Trafforrd meant that Tottenham could still postpone Leicester's party, and they began today's Derby with Chelsea looking to do just that, taking a two-goal lead through Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son. 

    Chelsea were, however, brought back into it by a Gary Cahill header... before Eden Hazard woke up in earnest, scoring the equaliser with a magical finish eight minutes from time. 

    And to think that the Belgian hadn't even scored a Premier League goal this season before last weekend. The same Hazard who had boisterously declared that all the Blues wanted Leicester City to win, both after last week's crushing of Bouremouth (where Eden scored twice) and at the beginning of the second half of today's thrilling draw. 
    One fan in the stands even shouted "Let's do it for Ranieri!". 

    ​Chelsea certainly have. Congratulations Leicester City!
