Leicester 2-1 Watford

Both managers will be unhappy with their side’s defending for the goals they have conceded.
Watford’s William Ekong misjudged a long ball forward and that let in James Maddison for Leicester’s opener, but the Foxes handed Watford an equaliser.
It was a rash challenge from Wilfred Ndidi, wiping out the standing leg of Emmanuel Dennis, when team-mates Jonny Evans and Caglar Söyüncü had the situation under control.
But take nothing away from Joshua King’s penalty, fired into the top corner past Kasper Schmeichel.
However, Ranieri would again be unhappy with Leicester’s second with Ekong slow to react to Maddison’s through ball and that enabled Jamie Vardy to lift Leicester ahead.
Vardy’s goals took Leicester to the title under Ranieri and the ex-England man gets a goal against his former boss. Thrilling match for the neutral, a nightmare for defensive coaches.
