| Ashley Ward pokes in the opening goal |
Leicester City only had one week to enjoy their time as English Champions as their next fixture was a midlands derby match against erm, Derby County.
Along with Leicester, Derby had been promoted to the Premier League the previous season as Division One runners-up. This was their first season in the Premier League but also their last playing at their historic home, the Baseball Ground.
The first goal came early in the second half, Christian Dailly heading across goal for Ashley Ward to poke in the opener for The Rams.
The win was secured in the last minute when Dean Sturridge (uncle of current England international, Daniel) saw his effort take a cruel deflection off Mike Whitlow for an own goal.
Derby County were back in the big time and Unofficial Champions for a second time.
