We're going to win the league: Leicester fans cheer 20 minutes after full-time as Mahrez sends Foxes eight points clear
CRYSTAL PALACE 0-1 LEICESTER - AT SELHURST PARK: When Claudio Ranieri walked along the touchline to take his seat before this match, something odd occurred; something which appeared to sum up the mood of the football nation. Crystal Palace fans in the Main Stand began to applaud. Ranieri acknowledged them and several then rose to their feet to clap the opposition manager as he made his way to the bench. Ranieri has no ties to Palace; there is no deep well of affection for him here. It was partly a throwback to old-fashioned gallantry. Yet it represented something more significant. Leicester City have become the champion of any club outside the big five.
