This was truly world shattering. Little Leicester toppled titans, not by fluke, but by winning time after time. It was simply unfathomable. It would be like jamaica or Madagascar winning the world cup. Unthinkable. They went up against money, wealth, status and power, the best teams funds could buy and beat them with grit, determination and faith in themselves. They didn't just punch above their weight once, they did it again and again and again. From this point on every other small team had hope that they could be the next Leicester and that will never ever fade. It could well be the greatest underdog story football has ever told. People can argue about knockout tournements, a few games over a month or so, but to compete at a level far higher than anyone ever dreamed? To beat champions again and again? To keep fighting even though you are facing the huge spending power of giants? Thats different. That is truly special. It is hard to ever see it being replicated, the utter drive these boys had to do what they did happens once in a century. Miracles truly do happen, i just never thought i would see it firsthand.

what a poor season everyone else had too.

[@RossDog]

Winning the title at 77 points geez, man city have just ruined it now for any hopes for teams to do this again

[@raymax_1071]

Fun fact: Conte's Tottenham ended this season with more points than that Tottenham that was supposedly fighting for the title.

[@imranhq13]

really? the table shows spurs already has 70 points with 2 matches to play

[@56postoffice]

Fantastic achievement. And all because they took advantage of Chelsea's faffing about with the club's medic/Mourinho situation. Spurs were the only team challenging Leicester and in typical Spursy fashion, bottled and made Arsenal the runners up 10 points behind the champs.

[@WRCSeb]

Absolutely amazing

[@leonsolace7]

A beautiful moment and I remember the general euphoria in the wider footballing world on that day after this match.

[@nimascolari1508]

Can we have some serious respect for Ranieri please? What he did to keep that squad motivated, focused, calm and plying for 38 games was insane. Yet it's Poch getting the big offers 😂 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Sahjhan]

This reminds me of Kaiserslautern 1997/98. Long gone are the days.

[@thejamesonthestreet]

Their best players were swiftly poached by European Giants afterwards and then they fell into crisis.

[@DannoAviation]

Absolutely incredible story this…

[@chocoholic832]

I was at the Leicester Royal Infirmary when they won & all the staff & patients was going crazy.

[@vidhyamdoshi]

The roar around the Bridge at the FT whistle 😂😭

[@tamhaswoods9056]

Good old days when it was not just Pep v Klopp and the 18 other teams parking the bus

[@4nus]

I'm from Leicester, can't describe the energy around the city that night and the following weeks..

[@AdrielMichael-xo2hd]

fact that Tottenham was close to winning it just shows how crazy a season that was

[@Revelian1982]

I remember this day like it was six years ago..

[@zacrobinson355]

6 years ago. Mad.

[@CaptainCreampie69]

It’s quite anti climactic how only the last game of the season is played at the same time. In my opinion only the first half of games should be scheduled before the season, the second half should be scheduled only 4 games at time to ensure all sides playing to not get relegated or for the title and European spots all play in the last month of the league.

[@SkyrimInMyPants]

What? Pls explain sorry.

[@sammiddleton6619]

Still mad to think this actually happened ! Once in a lifetime achievement

[@roanclawson4087]

It kind of annoys me as a Leicester fan to see people saying arsenal and Tottenham were bottle jobs that season, Leicester were top at Christmas and were the best team in the league all year, that’s why we won, because we were the best, we didn’t win it because Spurs or arsenal bottled it, arsenal celebrated like they won the league after that Welbeck goal but even then we were winning until a stupid red card which turned the game
