HULL, England -- Three points from Hull City 2-1 Leicester City on the opening day of the season in the Premier League.
1. Champions suffer title hangover
It seems Leicester do not own exclusive rights to Premier League shocks. The magical realism of last season's title-winning campaign lapsed in their very first match as defending champions.
Away fans had been only too happy to remind the home supporters of their club's status yet their team failed to swat away troubled Hull. Instead, Leicester stumbled and stuttered and the home side ran out deserved winners.
