Leicester City are dreaming of the impossible again after a dramatic victory over Seville last night took them through to the Champions League quarter-finals. Ten months after their extraordinary Premier League triumph, and only three weeks after the shock dismissal of Claudio Ranieri, goals from Wes Morgan and Marc Albrighton, plus a penalty save from Kasper Schmeichel, earned Leicester a 2-0 win at the King Power Stadium that secured a 3-2 aggregate victory. They will be joined in the quarter-final draw on Friday by Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus and Real Madrid, plus two from Monaco, Manchester City, Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen. “It’s incredible,” Morgan, the Leicester captain, said. We are newcomers in the Champions League.
