Ten years after a legendary, against-the-odds Premier League triumph, five years since winning the FA Cup, and a single season after dropping out of the top flight, Leicester Citywill be relegated to the third tier of English football, The Guardian reported. 

For a club that experienced real tragedy not long ago it would be misguided to indulge in excessive hyperbole, but a second straight relegation is a sporting disaster, certainly one of the most spectacular falls in the recent history of the domestic game.

After their six-point deduction for breaking financial regulations, Leicester fans may wonder what has become of the ongoing case against Manchester City. But they chanted “Sack the board” at the final whistle, and that anger directed at the club’s hierarchy spilled outside the stadium, with a sizeable crowd lingering long after the game and noisily expressing their fury.

Real Madrid secured a 2-1 home victory over struggling Alaves in LaLiga on Tuesday with goals from Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr to end a four-match winless run in all competitions, Reuters reported. 

The win moved second-placed Real to 73 points, six behind leaders Barcelona ahead of the Catalan side's home fixture against Celta Vigo on Wednesday. For Alaves, the defeat leaves them 17th, a solitary point above Elche in the final relegation spot.

Real dominated the opening stages as they sought to recover from a recent Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern Munich, while they had also failed to win their last two LaLiga outings.
