Football fans in the English city of Leicester have been celebrating a fairytale win for their club. Leicester City won England's Premier League for the first time in their 132-year history. The team beat the traditional powerhouses of Manchester United and Chelsea to the title. Many journalists are saying it is the greatest achievement in the history of sport. Leicester were bottom of the 20-team Premier League last year. They were nearly relegated to a lower league. However, their style of play totally changed this year. Their team spirit, the introduction of new players and a new coach all combined to make them almost unbeatable. They won the title on Monday night and their supporters around the world went crazy.

萊斯特城演繹英超童話。在球隊132年歷史中，首次奪得英超冠軍。萊斯特城擊敗老牌勁旅曼聯(lián)和切爾西奪冠。多數(shù)記者認(rèn)為，這是足球史上的奇跡。去年，萊斯特城在英超20只球隊中墊底。并勉強保級。然而今年，球隊作風(fēng)有了徹底改變。球隊大量引入新援，新任主教練走馬上任，再加上球隊精氣神大增，萊斯特幾乎無可比擬。周一晚間，萊斯特獲得英超冠軍，全球球迷熱情歡呼。

Leicester City were promoted to England’s Premier League only two years ago. They were hot favourites to go back down to the lower league again this season. No one gave them a chance of winning the Premier League. Last August, they were 5,000-1 against winning the title. That means if you had put a $1 bet on them to win, you could now collect $5,000. The actor Tom Hanks said he bet $100 on Leicester to win and will now get $500,000 back. Leicester's whole team cost less to buy than just one star in the top teams. Despite this, two Leicester players won the top player of the year awards in England. It is also likely that Leicester's Italian manager Claudio Ranieri will be world coach of the year.

萊斯特沖超僅僅兩年。而今年，他們?nèi)允墙导壌鬅衢T。沒人會預(yù)料他們奪冠。去年8月份，萊斯特奪冠幾率為五千分之一。如果你投注1美元，那么你將獲得5000美元贏球獎。演員湯姆·漢克斯下注100美元賭萊斯特贏，他也將獲得50萬美元獎金。全隊球員身價不敵頂級球隊的一名頂級球員。但盡管如此，兩名萊斯特球員獲得英格蘭年度最佳球員殊榮。萊斯特意籍主教練克勞迪奧·拉涅利很有可能成為年度世界級教練。
