Leicester City become the Premier League champions of the 2015/16 season in one of the most remarkable triumphs in sports history. Their seven point lead is unassailable for the other teams as there are two matches left. The trophy was sealed following the Spurs' draw against Chelsea, 2:2. This is the second season in a row in which the trophy winner has been decided in a match played on Stanford Bridge.
What makes this triumph so remarkable is that Leicester were appointed as complete outsiders at the beginning of the season and were supposed to get relegated according to the most specialists. The team was close to relegation last season and was a member of England's League 1 until 2009 so they really came from the nothing to become the kings of England.
The trophy is to be claimed by the team after their Saturday's fixture against Everton.
