ENGLISH FA PREMIER LEAGUE
Venue: STADIUM OF LIGHT (25)
The mark of champions
SUNDERLAND 0 LEICESTER CITY 2
Scorers: Vardy(2)
The remarkable story of Leicester City's march to being the Champions of England continued at the Stadium of Light with a performance worthy of champions. Going to a difficult venue and playing a team fighting for their lives they controlled the match from first to last touch of the ball, when Vardy rolled in the second in the fifth minute of injury time.
This was our first visit of the season to the Stadium of Light. We drove down and thankfully the Sunday morning traffic was kind to us with no hold UPS on M74 or A69. We arrived at 11.15am and parked in the waste ground behind the east of the stadium, at no cost.
This was our 25th visit to SOL and it's always a great occasion watching Premier League football at Sunderland. They continue to offer the best value of all Premier League clubs to watch top league football - from £25 for most matches - therefore it will be a shame if they lose their top flight club status. Unfortunately on the field they are not so great, struggling to score goals and are currently in the relegation zone with only five game remaining.
Only my second time watching Leicester, the first was 32 years ago at Ibrox of all places when Gary Lineker was in their team! Hopefully they can complete their fairytale story with three more wins.
