UEFA Champions League 2016/17: Leicester City 2-0 Sevilla, 5 Talking Points

Schmeichel saved N’Zonzi’s penalty to help Leicester cross the line

#4 Has the decision to sack Ranieri been justified?

The tinkerman was shown the exit door by Leicester management a fortnight after the first leg of this match. The decision saw a lot of people question, not just Leicester, but football as a whole. Managers, ex-players et al argued the decision was a horrific one and that Ranieri didn’t deserve the boot.

Though the Italian didn’t deserve to be sacked, the results paint a whole different story. Since the first leg defeat in Spain, the English champions have won all their three fixtures, 3-1 win against Liverpool, a 3-1 win against fellow relegation fighters Hull City and the victory against Sevilla.

While one can say the decision was wrong morally, it has somewhat been proved right practically.
