The new champions of English football received their crown at the King Power Stadium last night.
The final chapters of Leicester City’s fairy tale run to the 2015-16 Premier League title began with a 3-1 win over Everton,
Though even before the opening whistle it was clear that this was less of a football game and more of a celebration which was reaching epic magnitude.

The on-field proceedings could not have gone better for Leicester, with hero of the season Jamie Vardy opening the scoring from close range in the fifth minute. Club veteran Andy King would double the lead before halftime, before Vardy sealed the deal from the spot soon after the hour-mark.

Here are the best pictures from the occasion:
