Leicester City thrash Preston 3-0 to seal Championship title

Leicester City have won this season’s Championship title, with one game left.

Jamie Vardy scored twice on Monday, as they cruised to a comfortable 3-0 win over Preston.

The England striker got the party started with goals either side of half-time to send Enzo Maresca’s side on their way to a title-sealing victory, before Kasey McAteer put the cherry on the top with a third goal.

The full-time whistle brought jubilant scenes for Maresca, his staff and his players.

They will receive the Championship trophy after Saturday’s final day encounter with Blackburn at the King Power Stadium, which will determine whether the Foxes reach the 100-point mark or not.

It also means the second tier has been won by a Pep Guardiola disciple for the second season in a row, with Maresca following Vincent Kompany’s Burnley in being Championship top dogs.
