The 5,000-1 outsiders were given a guard of honour by Everton and serenaded by opera singer Andrea Bocelli during emotional pre-match celebrations, having clinched the title for the first time in their 132-year history on Monday when closest rivals Tottenham Hotspur were held 2-2 by Chelsea.

Vardy converted Andy King's cross in the fifth minute before King added a second in the 33rd. England striker Vardy then bagged a 65th-minute penalty after being brought down by James Pennington before firing another spot-kick wildly over the bar. Andy King scored the other goal for the Foxes. Kevin Mirallas pulled a late goal back for the visitors.
