Leicester City were crowned Premier League champions on Monday night after Chelsea staged a fightback to draw 2-2 with Tottenham Hotspur.
The Leicester players had gathered at striker Jamie Vardy’s house to watch the match, and to celebrate together should Tottenham fail to win.
First half goals from Harry Kane and Son Heung Min looked to keep the title race alive for Spurs for another week, only for Gary Cahill and Eden Hazard to level in the second half to end Tottenham’s title hopes.
