Leicester Move A Step Closer To Clinching The Premier League Title
The champagne is on ice tonight but Leicester City have edged closer to the Premier League title.
The leaders drew 1-1 with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday. Claudio Ranieri could do with a favour from his old club Chelsea tomorrow.
If the Blues can stop Tottenham Hotspur from winning tomorrow it will hand Leicester a first top-flight title in their 132-year history.
Anthony Martial fired Manchester United in front after 8 minutes. Antonio Valencia skipped past Christian Fuchs before sending in a teasing cross.
Anthony Martial took control of the ball before calmly putting it through the legs of Kasper Schmeichel. Wes Morgan headed a 16th-minute equaliser to get back in the game.
It was a tight and tense affair and it boiled over when Danny Drinkwater was sent off for a second bookable offence for hauling Memphis Depay down on the edge of the box.
The midfielder will miss out next Saturday when they play Everton, by then the Foxes could be Premier League champions.
