Leicester City's much awaited coronation at Old Trafford did not come to pass, as Manchester United pulled off a 1-1 draw to temper the Foxes’ celebrations. An early goal from Anthony Martial gave Manchester United the lead, but Foxes captain Wes Morgan equalised 9 minutes later from a corner. Danny Drinkwater was sent off late on, but that did not stop the Leicester fans from celebrating at the final whistle.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the game:

Fellaini on BBC a few wks ago: "I don’t want to elbow someone. I just defend myself."Just seen another act of "self-defence" go unpunished

Rojo can't defend. At all. The only thing he's good for is the occasional cross and burning toast.

For Leicester fans anyway, it'll be so much better winning the title at the Kingpower Stadium than Old Trafford. Next week is your week.
