Twitter reacts to Leicester's latest Premier League trick
The fairytale continues.
An unlikely brace from center back Robert Huth proved to be the difference as Leicester City stunned second-place Manchester City 3-1 at the Etihad on Saturday to go six points clear atop the Premier League.
Leicester, who at the start of the season were given 5000/1 odds by most bookmakers to win the league, are suddenly the betting favorites to finish off the most improbable, incredible run in British football history.
Yes, it's still only early February, but the Foxes' demolition of arguably their closest rivals -- on their home turf, no less -- has turned more of the lingering naysayers into believers.
Here's a look at some of the top Tweets from Saturday:
