Leicester have won the Premier League for the first

:00:00.:00:13.

They did it when Chelsea equalised against Tottenham -

:00:14.:00:16.

Ecstasy for Leicester fans as the fairytale came true.

:00:17.:00:28.

The Foxes have never won the League before.

:00:29.:00:35.

The Foxes started the season as rank outsiders but have

:00:36.:00:37.

This is the scene live where celebrations continue in Leicester.

Scientists hail a major discovery into the causes of breast cancer

after identifying key genetic changes in cells.

:00:49.:00:53.

Why that cell is turning into a cancer cell, and if you can

:00:54.:00:56.

understand that, you can understand the causes of the cancer and you can

Good evening and welcome to BBC News.

:01:20.:01:50.

In one of the biggest shocks in sporting history,

:01:51.:01:52.

Leicester City have been crowned Premier League champions.

:01:53.:01:56.

Their closest rival in the title race was Tottenham Hotspur,

:01:57.:01:59.

but they failed to win at Chelsea tonight, handing the

:02:00.:02:03.

The Prime Minister has just tweeted his congratulations saying it was

:02:04.:02:28.

well deserved. That will be the first of many congratulations across

:02:29.:02:32.

social media for Leicester City in the coming days. Joe Wilson is at

:02:33.:02:38.

Stamford Bridge. While the Leicester City fans celebrate, many would

:02:39.:02:42.

rather be in the stands, watching the team playing and winning, but

:02:43.:02:50.

perhaps just now they don't care. I reckon if Leicester City fan you

:02:51.:02:53.

have won the Premier League, they would take than anyway that it came.

:02:54.:02:58.

They can look forward to the last home game of the season next

:02:59.:03:03.

Saturday against Everton. That would be an outpouring of joy and

:03:04.:03:07.

celebration. So much of this season has felt like Dapper Leicester City.

:03:08.:03:11.

This fearlessness that has come every week, knowing that there are

:03:12.:03:15.

doing something that's nobody expected them to do. Here at

:03:16.:03:21.

Stamford Bridge, we have the crowds disbursing. There is a general

:03:22.:03:26.

feeling of revelry amongst the Chelsea supporters. They have had

:03:27.:03:31.

little to cheer this season. The title defence went so badly wrong.

:03:32.:03:38.

What was in the minds of the supporters and many of the players

:03:39.:03:42.

was that they really wanted to stop Tottenham Hotspur winning the title.

:03:43.:03:48.

There is an animosity between those teams. Spurs came here knowing that

:03:49.:03:54.

they have to win all of their remaining games and hope that

:03:55.:03:57.

Leicester City slipped up. In the first half they look back a far

:03:58.:04:07.

better team. What we saw in the first half was a very modern

:04:08.:04:13.

Tottenham Hotspur. Harry Kane scored, having a great victory

:04:14.:04:20.

season. John Terry had come back into the Chelsea defence. We did not

:04:21.:04:25.

anticipate Chelsea getting back into this game at all. They got back into

:04:26.:04:31.

it with a goal from K Hill. In the 82nd minute, Eden Hazard, it was his

:04:32.:04:39.

goal that was the equaliser. It finished 2-2. This game was

:04:40.:04:44.

full-blooded. There were incidents and accidents every couple of

:04:45.:04:49.

minutes. If you happen to be on an FA disciplinary panel, reviewing

:04:50.:04:54.

this game could take to the rest of the week. One incident but Diego

:04:55.:05:06.

Costa in particular, with our Tottenham player looking to put his

:05:07.:05:12.

fingers towards the eyes of Diego Costa. Tonight, Leicester have done

:05:13.:05:18.

it without kicking a ball. Picking up from the Prime Minister said,

:05:19.:05:22.

thoroughly deserved, there will be a lot of people echoing words tonight.

:05:23.:05:27.

They have lost just three times in the season. This was a team that

:05:28.:05:39.

basically surprised everybody! In the past we have had unusual teams

:05:40.:05:48.

getting to the FA Cup, recently Wigan winning the FA Cup. If you win

:05:49.:05:56.

the Premier League you have to do it over a sustained period of

:05:57.:06:01.

excellence. What has happened to Leicester City has been an

:06:02.:06:07.

inspiration to so many clubs. Sport needs that element of

:06:08.:06:10.

unpredictability and that is why it in raptures us. The Premier League

:06:11.:06:19.

had come quite predictable, four or five clubs and convention -- in

:06:20.:06:27.

contention every season. This has made it seem possible that any team

:06:28.:06:30.

could win. Sorry, we are losing the sound.

:06:31.:06:47.

That's big to Lee Foster at the BBC sports centre. You were watching

:06:48.:06:53.

that match. It was a heated match and understandably so. It was really

:06:54.:06:59.

ugly. Nine yellow card is for Tottenham Hotspur as they saw the

:07:00.:07:04.

match on the title slip away. There were some very ugly scenes in the

:07:05.:07:07.

tunnel afterwards as both sets of players and staff got embroiled and

:07:08.:07:14.

had to be pulled apart a stewards. All manner of things were going on

:07:15.:07:18.

in the tunnel. I think it was frustration boiling over for

:07:19.:07:23.

Tottenham. In any other year, you look at the achievements and you

:07:24.:07:26.

would say it is a fantastic season. It will be like that at the moment.

:07:27.:07:33.

The Prime Minister had used the word extraordinary, and we are all

:07:34.:07:38.

reaching for the records across all sports, individual and team, to try

:07:39.:07:42.

to work out when there has been a more unlikely champion. Perhaps an

:07:43.:07:48.

individual sports, yes, Ben Curtis winning the open, Goran Ivanisevic

:07:49.:07:53.

winning Wimbledon, but Leicester across the course of the Premier

:07:54.:07:58.

League season, coming out with two games to spare, they are seven

:07:59.:08:04.

points clear ahead of Tottenham Hotspur, it must go down as one of

:08:05.:08:07.

the most unlikely and greatest sporting achievements. It was only

:08:08.:08:13.

this time last season that Leicester were just getting their heads above

:08:14.:08:17.

water because they had been bottom of the Premier League for over six

:08:18.:08:23.

months. They sacked the manager, Nigel Pearson, after he helped them

:08:24.:08:27.

survive then they reached out for a man that English but all fans and

:08:28.:08:31.

Chelsea fans know very well indeed, Claudio Ranieri. He was sacked at

:08:32.:08:37.

the beginning of the Roman Abramovich tenure. He went away and

:08:38.:08:42.

reinvented himself at Valencia, Monaco, Inter Milan. He had been out

:08:43.:08:47.

of work for a while before he came back to the Premier League. He was a

:08:48.:08:52.

laughing stock in the Greece national job, losing five games with

:08:53.:08:56.

them, including once against the Faroe Islands. If there was no way

:08:57.:09:02.

back for him. When he was appointed at Leicester, with no real star is

:09:03.:09:06.

no real hope to stay up and survive again it was felt, they really

:09:07.:09:11.

thought, is this a man who can fit into this kind of job at Leicester?

:09:12.:09:15.

He certainly did. And the players who came on board. Riyad Mahrez,

:09:16.:09:31.

Jamie -- Jamie Vardy. He has just been... Jamie Vardy has been

:09:32.:09:35.

suspended for the last two matches. They have done it without him,

:09:36.:09:40.

really. He is the top scorer with 22. Harry Kane scored his 25th of

:09:41.:09:46.

the season to be the top scorer in the Premier League, but all to no

:09:47.:09:53.

avail for Spurs. They have to pick themselves up for the last matches

:09:54.:09:58.

against Southampton and Newcastle to try to remain runners up. Leicester,

:09:59.:10:05.

no matter what happens at home to Everton, and then away at Chelsea,

:10:06.:10:10.

would you believe, you would think there will take some champion time

:10:11.:10:14.

at them to Stamford Bridge, to tell them thank you. One case just for

:10:15.:10:21.

Eden Hazard! He scored against Spurs this evening. He looked at all the

:10:22.:10:29.

Premier League winners 20 years, since that first Premier League back

:10:30.:10:35.

in 1993, Manchester United won it then the rise of Chelsea. Then you

:10:36.:10:41.

had Arsenal, the invincible scum of the rise of Manchester City. The

:10:42.:10:45.

anomaly was black and Rovers until today. Blackburn Rovers doesn't

:10:46.:10:50.

compare at all. I was speaking to the star striker Chris Sutton before

:10:51.:10:56.

the weekend and he said what we did Blackburn Rovers will not compare to

:10:57.:11:02.

what is Leicester City have done. We were expected to challenge, he said,

:11:03.:11:07.

with runners up the year before, top for the year before that. A lot of

:11:08.:11:11.

money was pumped into Blackburn Rovers, so don't put us in with

:11:12.:11:16.

Leicester City. Perhaps you have the go back to 1978 and Brian Clough's

:11:17.:11:22.

Nottingham Forest side. They gain promotion to the top division then

:11:23.:11:26.

won the title against the great sides such as Liverpool at the time.

:11:27.:11:31.

That was considered to be an amazing achievement, but never was the gulf

:11:32.:11:37.

in funds and status between side so fast as it is at the moment, so put

:11:38.:11:41.

the likes of Leicester with a combined squad total of ?30 million

:11:42.:11:49.

to go up against the likes of Arsenal, who have players worth that

:11:50.:11:55.

alone. Manchester City, Chelsea. It has been a freakish season, not just

:11:56.:12:00.

Leicester winning the title, but the fact that Chelsea, who we saw that

:12:01.:12:06.

in such a performance as they said they would against Spurs tonight to

:12:07.:12:10.

help Leicester win the title, because remember they were the

:12:11.:12:14.

champions in the champions in the Premier League has actually put in a

:12:15.:12:18.

worst offence, because Chelsea are finishing well out of the European

:12:19.:12:23.

places. It will rankle with Spurs fans. A lot of the ball watchers

:12:24.:12:27.

wondered if it was right that Cesc Fabregas and Eden Hazard who came

:12:28.:12:32.

off the bench and scored the equaliser for Chelsea, they were

:12:33.:12:35.

very public and saying that we want Leicester to win the title. They

:12:36.:12:44.

still have Leicester to play on the last day of the season.

:12:45.:12:46.

Extraordinary. It is extraordinary. Some of what a has been. Incredible

:12:47.:13:06.

scenes here. We are in the pub that is a short walk on the Leicester

:13:07.:13:12.

City stadium. A few moments ago, that nail-biting finish, the fans

:13:13.:13:16.

here just erupted. Champions for the first time in the 132 year history.

:13:17.:13:22.

When Chelsea were to happen to you wrote down to Tottenham I think many

:13:23.:13:27.

thought they would have to sort it out next week against Everton at

:13:28.:13:32.

home. But Chelsea got the equaliser and the draw was enough to mean that

:13:33.:13:36.

Leicester are champions. How are you feeling? Shaken. I am surprised I

:13:37.:13:45.

haven't cried yet. I am shaking. It is so hot in here! I don't think

:13:46.:13:52.

anybody has really taken it in yet. When Chelsea were 2-0, did you think

:13:53.:13:59.

that was it? It wasn't looking good, was at? I think people were a bit

:14:00.:14:05.

deflated. But then you would think you will just minutes on Saturday in

:14:06.:14:09.

front of our home crowd. Thank you, Chelsea! How did you feel when the

:14:10.:14:16.

equaliser went in? It was amazing. It was a really good goal, as well.

:14:17.:14:23.

Chelsea turned it on in the second half. For the fans holding up a sign

:14:24.:14:30.

saying do it for Claudio Ranieri, thank you. Leicester fans are used

:14:31.:14:35.

to this, are they? Not at all. Anything could happen next season!

:14:36.:14:40.

Thank you for your time. What is amazing is that there is such a lot

:14:41.:14:44.

of goodwill towards Leicester from the neutrals. People who may not

:14:45.:14:50.

support one of the big clubs that are normally vying for the Premier

:14:51.:14:57.

League title. Leicester were 5000-1 outsiders. I don't think anybody

:14:58.:15:03.

would have believed that they would've been the champions the

:15:04.:15:06.

Premier League. Many thanks for that. The congratulations continued

:15:07.:15:15.

to come in as Leicester win the Premier League for the first time in

:15:16.:15:19.

their history. The Prime Minister has tweeted, many congratulations to

:15:20.:15:22.

Leicester, an extraordinary and thoroughly deserved the merely

:15:23.:15:30.

title. Gary Lineker has just tweeted. I met Claudio Ranieri add

:15:31.:15:34.

to the game and he said Gary I don't want to see you do Match of the Day

:15:35.:15:39.

in your pants. That was that he had to do Match of the Day in his

:15:40.:15:45.

underpants. The SGD, cloudy, says Gary Lineker! Former Leicester City

:15:46.:15:51.

player Steve Claridge joins me on the line. I suppose you are rubbing

:15:52.:15:59.

your eyes very hard tonight! I think for a while we have imagined that

:16:00.:16:04.

this scenario would happen. I don't think that it is such a surprise

:16:05.:16:08.

because they have been so very good for so very long. This was on the

:16:09.:16:14.

cards. I thought it was a case of when rather than if. It is an

:16:15.:16:24.

incredible achievement. It is, but within this fairy tale there are

:16:25.:16:30.

remarkable undercurrents. The star goal-scorer -- goal-scorer who

:16:31.:16:32.

worked in a factory because he was told he wasn't good enough. The

:16:33.:16:41.

coach who had been dumped. That they built a side on a fraction of the

:16:42.:16:47.

challengers. There will be a film made about this! I think they are

:16:48.:16:52.

every neutral's popular choice because they haven't done of the

:16:53.:16:55.

conventional way. They were very good last season. They played the

:16:56.:17:02.

whole of the season the way they had finished it we wouldn't have been

:17:03.:17:08.

far away last season. To carry on that sort of form throughout the

:17:09.:17:14.

season is incredible. The best thing is when the leagues. I don't think

:17:15.:17:17.

anybody can argue that they haven't been the best team this year. Fans

:17:18.:17:21.

are starting to gather outside the stadium. You have been a player,

:17:22.:17:28.

coach, commentator. Where did it go right for a Leicester City? It is a

:17:29.:17:34.

combination. There is no doubt that other teams have slightly taken

:17:35.:17:38.

their eye off the ball and that is taking nothing away from Leicester.

:17:39.:17:42.

Would you say that Manchester City have performed to the true ability?

:17:43.:17:48.

No, they haven't. Liverpool have sacked their manager. Manchester

:17:49.:17:55.

United haven't had a good year. You wonder if Arsenal will ever win the

:17:56.:18:08.

title under Asim Wenger. It is virtually impossible to beat sides

:18:09.:18:13.

of that ilk about things going your way, but you have to have the

:18:14.:18:18.

wherewithal, the intelligence, the ability, the energy to take

:18:19.:18:21.

advantage of that. They have done that. In all honesty, it is very

:18:22.:18:26.

difficult to see this ever happening again. They will have got to

:18:27.:18:32.

Christmas and they were going well at Christmas, then they got beaten

:18:33.:18:35.

by Liverpool. He looked at the Arsenal game and you just stop, at

:18:36.:18:41.

Chile, this is the test. The test wasn't the last 67 games, it was

:18:42.:18:45.

around Christmas when they still had have a season left, could they go to

:18:46.:18:50.

the end of the season? They came through that test. We are looking at

:18:51.:18:54.

the moment that they knew they had the Premier League. Jamie Vardy,

:18:55.:19:02.

seen as the man of the season, a fairy tale season for him. An

:19:03.:19:08.

astonishing rise. He is likely to be in the England squad. Should we have

:19:09.:19:13.

high hopes for that? Think we should. Defensively we are a little

:19:14.:19:20.

bit lacking in the quality that is required to win the competition, but

:19:21.:19:24.

we have players now, as is so against Germany, that are very good

:19:25.:19:29.

going forward. Carl Walker was fantastic, Danny Rose was very good,

:19:30.:19:35.

Harry Kane was sublime at times. There are some really good players

:19:36.:19:38.

that we can all look forward to watching in an England shirt. I bet

:19:39.:19:45.

G you never expected to do this interview! Everybody here has the

:19:46.:19:53.

privilege of being alive to enjoy this occasion should make the most

:19:54.:19:57.

of it because it is very difficult to ever see this happening again. It

:19:58.:20:01.

is quite wonderful. Let's look back to Leicester's remarkable season

:20:02.:20:06.

with our sports reporter and the Swiss.

:20:07.:20:09.

It is a story straight out of a comment perk of a team staring at

:20:10.:20:14.

relegation barely a year ago he turned the footballing world upside

:20:15.:20:18.

down. How do you explain the seemingly inexplicable? At the

:20:19.:20:25.

centre of it players. Leicester find A* as were others barely look. Jamie

:20:26.:20:31.

Vardy from lowly Fleetwood Town. Riyad Mahrez from the French second

:20:32.:20:40.

division. The entire first 11 cost just ?23 million. In Premier League

:20:41.:20:44.

terms, little more than this change. Recruitment is the hardest thing in

:20:45.:20:48.

the hall and Leicester have been magnificent. Jamie Vardy in

:20:49.:20:54.

non-League the ball, Riyad Mahrez ?350,000. A lot of the players in

:20:55.:20:58.

the team have been reject from other teams. And an unlikely star manager.

:20:59.:21:04.

When he arrived last summer Claudio Ranieri had just been sacked by

:21:05.:21:08.

Greece and at first his new team struggled defensively, so the

:21:09.:21:13.

Italian gave them a very Italian incentive. I said when we make a

:21:14.:21:19.

clean sheet alibi make everybody a pizza. Sure enough, he treated them

:21:20.:21:26.

to a pizza class. In the process he served up a winning formula. That

:21:27.:21:32.

pizza making session in this room proved the turning point for the

:21:33.:21:36.

season. The leaky defence begin the tightest in the league and that also

:21:37.:21:40.

summed up the spirit and unity that the manager so successfully built.

:21:41.:21:47.

He showed up for my birthday. I don't think too many managers do

:21:48.:21:51.

that. We are having fun with each other. At the same time you can

:21:52.:21:57.

switch around and be very focused on what we need to do. For all the

:21:58.:22:05.

talent, the timing has been key. Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester

:22:06.:22:09.

United and Arsenal all faltered. Leicester have been fortunate with

:22:10.:22:13.

injuries, using just 23 players, fewer than anybody else. The

:22:14.:22:19.

underperforming big clubs have helped Leicester, taking full

:22:20.:22:23.

advantage. Wouldn't surprise me of next season Leicester finish in

:22:24.:22:27.

bottom half. I think this is a one season wonder that will never happen

:22:28.:22:33.

again. This is ultimately fantasies that ball. Leicester's story defies

:22:34.:22:38.

logic. The impossible dream that has become a glorious reality.

:22:39.:22:50.

47 people back to Leicester have 5000-1 at Ladbrokes. That was the

:22:51.:23:02.

start of this fairy tale. We sought the remarkable Jamie Vardy having a

:23:03.:23:10.

fairy tale season of his own. Let's show you the moment of the final

:23:11.:23:14.

whistle went Leicester City knew they had the Premier League.

:23:15.:23:32.

That is how the fans were celebrating. Let's look at Jamie

:23:33.:23:55.

Vardy and cool watching. CHEERING. If you want to watch this

:23:56.:24:21.

again it will be available on the BBC News website very shortly. Jamie

:24:22.:24:28.

Vardy the. That was targeted by Christian Fuchs just 30 seconds of

:24:29.:24:36.

the players seeing the unbelievable. Jamie Vardy had a fairy tale season,

:24:37.:24:41.

an astonishing rise after joining the club from Fleetwood in 2012.

:24:42.:24:45.

Much more analysis and reaction throughout the evening.

:24:46.:24:49.

We'll find out how this story and many others are covered

:24:50.:24:52.

in tomorrow's front pages at 11.30pm this evening in The Papers.

:24:53.:24:55.

My guests tonight are journalist and author Rachel Shabi

:24:56.:24:57.

and Political Correspondent for the Daily Telegraph

:24:58.:24:58.

The first cruise ship to sail from the United States to Cuba

:24:59.:25:21.

in more than 50 years has docked in Havana.

:25:22.:25:23.

The Adonia sailed from the port of Miami in Florida

:25:24.:25:25.

The crossing was only possible because Cuba scrapped a ban

:25:26.:25:28.

on its citizens entering or leaving the island by sea last week.

:25:29.:25:31.

Diplomatic ties between the two countries are being rebuilt

:25:32.:25:34.

after being severed following the Cuban Revolution.

:25:35.:25:35.

Our correspondent in Havana Will Grant travelled

:25:36.:25:37.

There was a sense of expect a nation among the passengers. When we awoke

:25:38.:25:46.

on board this morning and found have are not on the horizon it was quite

:25:47.:25:50.

a breathtaking moment. The closer we got to the city you could begin to

:25:51.:25:53.

hear the crowds and the captain started sounding the horn, which was

:25:54.:26:00.

being returned with the horns of the drivers of the 1950s cars. It was

:26:01.:26:06.

quite a touching moment, and an important one. Up until this stage a

:26:07.:26:10.

lot of the things that we have seen in Cuba, the opening of embassies,

:26:11.:26:15.

the re-establishing of diplomatic ties, even the visit by President

:26:16.:26:20.

Obama, for a lot of ordinary Cubans, it asked the question, what does

:26:21.:26:26.

this mean to me? When you see scores of Americans, and Cuban-Americans,

:26:27.:26:30.

not forgetting that this cruise ship caused a change in the rules and

:26:31.:26:34.

migrations of Cuban born nationals can return to the island by C,

:26:35.:26:37.

something that was not permitted until recently, that does make a

:26:38.:26:43.

difference to their lives. That means potentially more work and

:26:44.:26:47.

income and it means that they too can travel by boat. I think this is

:26:48.:26:51.

significant diplomatically as well as economically and on that

:26:52.:26:58.

fraternal level. In the Cuban Communist Party FNP saw in the

:26:59.:27:01.

recent congress that they want to put the brakes on it, they have

:27:02.:27:05.

almost gone too far too fast on the one to make sure that things can get

:27:06.:27:10.

out of hand in terms of the push towards capitalism or private

:27:11.:27:14.

businesses. That said, I think a lot of ordinary Cubans just think that

:27:15.:27:17.

the time has come for change. This is a relationship based on the Cold

:27:18.:27:22.

War, it was hostile when there was no need to be, and that the time had

:27:23.:27:29.

really come for a new start. This ship, this service, the

:27:30.:27:31.

re-establishment of passenger services between the two countries

:27:32.:27:35.

does feel like part of that new start.

:27:36.:27:40.

Warmer weather is on the way but for the next couple of nights in rural

We'll be looking at how Leicester became the Premier League's

:30:32.:30:33.

Scientists hail a "milestone" in understanding what

:30:34.:30:41.

It could lead to new methods of treatment.

Leicester City are tonight champions of the Premier League in one

:31:17.:31:19.

of the most extraordinary stories in the history of the game.

:31:20.:31:21.

Written off at the beginning of the season, the club defied

:31:22.:31:23.

the critics and upset huge odds to clinch the title

:31:24.:31:27.

And they did so without even kicking a ball, after their nearest rivals,

:31:28.:31:31.

Spurs, failed to win against Chelsea.

:31:32.:31:34.

For a second day in a row, fans packed into pubs and bars

:31:35.:31:38.

across the city of Leicester to see if the fairytale would come true.

:31:39.:31:43.

Our sports editor, Dan Roan, is outside

:31:44.:31:45.

This is what it means for Leicester City to become the new, the least

:31:46.:32:00.

likely and probably the most popular Premier League Champions there has

:32:01.:32:03.

ever been. Thousands of fans have flooded out on to the streets of the

:32:04.:32:07.

city, many of them, as you can probably see and hear, are behind me

:32:08.:32:11.

at their home, the King Power Stadium, where, at the weekend, they

:32:12.:32:14.

will be presented with the Premier League Trophy. Let's not forget,

:32:15.:32:20.

they were 5,000-1, rank outsiders to win this league before the season

:32:21.:32:24.

began. They have done it. They have turned the football, no, the sport's

:32:25.:32:29.

world upside-down, fairy tale complete, they are the new

:32:30.:32:33.

champions. Yes, the new champions of the Premier League. Here is the

:32:34.:32:34.

story of the night. The final chapter in

:32:35.:32:39.

sport's greatest story. This, what it means to the city

:32:40.:32:42.

of Leicester tonight to see their team become

:32:43.:32:45.

the new and most unlikely Premier League Champions

:32:46.:32:47.

there's ever been. This afternoon, mastermind

:33:32.:33:36.

belonged to Chelsea. Gary Cahill pulling one back

Leicester's unlikely dream For those who have

:33:50.:33:58.

followed them for years, It's insane! It is epic! Speechless!

:33:59.:34:03.

Champions of England! Leicester City's achievement

legendary side sees parallels. Leicester City have done absolutely

:34:47.:34:49.

magnificently this season. I would say in football,

:34:50.:34:54.

it's probably the biggest story since Nottingham

:34:55.:35:01.

Forest in 1977/78. And so the ultimate

:35:02.:35:06.

underdogs come out on top. Proof that in sport

:35:07.:35:10.

anything is possible. So resolute, so consistent have

:35:11.:35:22.

Leicester City been, it is easy to forget what a big sporting shock

:35:23.:35:26.

this is. Let's not forget that Leicester City, at the start of the

:35:27.:35:29.

season, were favourites to be relegated. Their squad cost a

:35:30.:35:33.

fraction of their richer rivals, some of the wealthiest clubs in the

:35:34.:35:36.

world. Their manager, Claudio Ranieri, had a reputation for being

:35:37.:35:41.

the nearly man of football. No longer, here is Andy Swiss trying to

:35:42.:35:44.

make sense of how Leicester did it. It is a story straight

:35:45.:35:48.

out of a comic book, of a team staring at relegation

:35:49.:35:50.

barely a year ago, who turned So how do you explain

:35:51.:35:52.

the seemingly inexplicable? Leicester found stars

:35:53.:35:57.

what a team they are! Their entire first 11

:36:14.:36:17.

little more than loose change. Recruitment is the hardest

thing in football. Leicester have been

magnificent at that. Vardy, in non-league football not

Claudio Ranieri had just been And at first, his new team

struggled defensively. So the Italian gave them

a very Italian incentive. I said, when we make clean sheet,

we can switch around and be very focussed, be very concentrated

:37:29.:37:32.

on what we need to do. But, for all their talent,

:37:33.:37:35.

their timing has been key. This was a rare season when Chelsea,

Manchester City, Manchester United Leicester have also been

:37:40.:37:42.

fortunate with injuries, using just 23 players -

fewer than anyone else. The underperforming big clubs have

next season, Leicester I think this is a one season wonder,

which will never happen again. Indeed, this is ultimately fantasy

become a glorious reality. These are some of the most jubilant

:38:11.:38:27.

scenes of celebration that the Premier League has ever witnessed.

:38:28.:38:32.

It is not just the fans who are celebrating, Leicester City's squad

:38:33.:38:38.

too, they gathered at the house of Jamie Vardy, and this is what it

:38:39.:38:41.

meant to them when they knew that they were, each and every one of

:38:42.:38:46.

them, Premier League Champions. Many of those players have never

:38:47.:38:49.

experienced anything quite like that before. This is a victory, a triumph

:38:50.:38:55.

that has resonated across the world of sport, not just here, but across

:38:56.:38:58.

the globe. Leicester City's players can look forward to Champions League

:38:59.:39:03.

football next season in Europe. It truly is a victory, the like of

:39:04.:39:07.

which modern sport, where money rules, wasn't meant to produce

:39:08.:39:10.

anymore, but it's a victory that has put the smile back on the face of

:39:11.:39:12.

sport, too. Dan Roan, thank you. Scientists say a new study has given
