The game against Everton was just a formality. That 90 minutes run to just fine tune a few details. Like an opportunity for Jamie Vardy to continue his journey of trying to win the golden boot or Schmeichel to get more clean sheets.
For the major accolade for this season’s English Premier League, Leicester City already had that in the bag prior to the fixture against Everton at the King Power Stadium.
Guard of honour from the Everton players for Premier League Champions Leicester CityLeicester City have been brilliant all season. However the game that went into the books as one that won Claudio Ranieri’s men the Premier League title didn’t even have Leicester City players playing in it.
Jeffrey Schlupp and Daniel Amartey’s Leicester City crowned Premier League ChampionsIt was one which had two great London rivals, one at the time a Premier League Champion working really hard to deny the other of having their hands on the Premier League title.
And it worked out perfectly.
