Championes, championes, ole, ole, ole! | :00:09. | :00:15. | |
The fairytale comes true for Leicester City as they top | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
And we take a look at how they got there. | :00:19. | :00:33. | |
There's only one story that everyone's talking | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
about this morning - Leicester City are premier | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
Last night their rivals for the top spot, Spurs, played Chelsea. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
They needed to win to stay in the running, and everything | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
looked to be going well, until Chelsea came back from 2-0 | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
down to end Spurs' dreams of a title win and hand Leicester the crown. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
Jenny's been taking a look at the reaction. | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
Championes, championes, ole, ole, ole! | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
The night the so-called impossible dream became a reality. | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
Outside their stadium, Leicester fans celebrated their club's | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
first-ever Premier League title win in what's been described | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
For their players, too, who had gathered at striker | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
Jamie Vardy's house, it was the moment they | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
The team who've transformed from the brink of relegation | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
Earlier, they'd all watched nervously as Tottenham tried | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
to keep their title hopes alive, but Chelsea's late equaliser | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
completed one of the most remarkable stories in Premier League history. | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
Barely a year ago, they were bottom of the league. | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
I got a bit emotional at the end of the game, I just | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
It was quite hard to breathe the last few minutes, to be honest. | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
But I've followed them since I was a little kid, | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
I was a season ticket holder since I was seven years old. | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
A night they and indeed football will never forget. | :02:04. | :02:12. | |
Well, Leicester's rise to the top has been called one | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
of the greatest achievements in English sporting history. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
I've been taking a look back at their season | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
Leicester City are in the Premier League for | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
But after a string of losses, by Christmas 2014, they are bottom | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
of the table, and by March 2015, relegation looms. | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
Until four unexpected wins in April secures survival. | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
Which brings us to the summer of 2015. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Fans are shocked as manager Nigel Pearson is sacked, | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
and Claudio Ranieri is hired to take his spot. | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
The 2015/16 season kicks off in August, and Ranieri's team | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
They're unbeaten for the whole first month. | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
Striker Jamie Vardy steals the show in November. | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
He breaks league records by scoring in 11 games in a row. | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
And it's a Merry Christmas day 2015 for Foxes fans, | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
with their team at the top of the league having been bottom | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
2016, the year that Leicester's fairy tale starts to look like it | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
By April, Leicester have qualified for the Champions League | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
for the first time, and only Tottenham offer a real challenge | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
But on May the 2nd, Spurs lose their grip on the title | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
