    Leicester 3-1 Everton

    Leicester striker Jamie Vardy, speaking to Sky Sports, calm worries over a possible hamstring injury: "It was just a bit of cramp - it completely seized up. A bit of TLC needed.

    "It would've been a lot better if I didn't put a ball over [from the penalty]. It is an unbelievable feeling for everyone involved. I cant describe it - it is mental. 

    "I think someone must have put a spell on me to make it happen. Everyone works hard for each other. It if weren't for the lads then I wouldn't be on the goals that I have scored. 

    "You don't get nowhere by not having foundations and players having the talent to get results. We are like brothers. We are always going out with each other.

    "After the result (Chelsea 2-2 Tottenham on Monday) you looked on streets and the police had to shut the road as there were so many people.

    "It's taken a lot of hard work and I'm proud of what I've achieved personally but without the lads I wouldn't be here so have to thank them."

  4. Strong foundationspublished at 20:17 British Summer Time 7 May 2016

    More from Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri: "In my career I always thought sooner or later I will win a title but at the beginning I never though here would be the place but why not? This is crazy season big teams aren’t consistent in season are we have consistency

    "I believe at the top it is important to have a very good owner and I met fantastic people.  When I first came I thought this is a very good dressing room, all friends and I tried to build the Italian mentality, solid and strong. At beginning wasn’t working so well but then after was fantastic

    "At the beginning it was very important to stay in Premier League for a few seasons and then move up but now we are champions.

    "We know very well this is strange year and have to put it aside and be focussed on next season, the foundations are strong."

    There is quite a crowd scene going on out there - players, management, backroom staff, families. Wonderful stuff.

    Two elderly gentlemen not far from the press box have just gone into a prolonged, emotion-filled embrace. And who can blame them? This is a day they surely never thought they would see.

    Leicester City keeper Kasper Schmeichel is having his photograph taken by his father Peter, a title-winner himself with Manchester United, although he never pulled off a shock like this.

    Peter Schmeichel is on grandfatherly duties, looking after Kasper's son Max. A future Premier League winner himself one day, perhaps?

    Like me and you, Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri still can't quite believe it.

    He holds the trophy then looks at it and almost does a double take before patting it and walking away a smile on his face.

    Unreal.
