LONDON -- Three points from Crystal Palace 0-1 Leicester in the Premier League as Claudio Ranieri's men claimed a critical win in their pursuit of the title.
Title looms for Leicester
It's getting closer. Leicester's 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday took them eight points clear at the top, at least until Tottenham play Bournemouth on Sunday.
It was an impressively unfussy, controlled victory from a team now winning in the manner of champions. This was Leicester's fourth 1-0 victory in their past five league games -- a scoreline they'd recorded just once before that run this season -- against Crystal Palace back in October.
