Leicester clash an 'emotional' experience for Fulham boss Ranieri

The Cottagers boss said emotions were running high as his club faced off with the side he led to a Premier League title

Claudio Ranieri acknowledged Fulham's fixture against his former club Leicester City was an emotional occasion.

Ranieri is a great at the King Power Stadium, having guided Leicester to their remarkable Premier League title in 2015-16, before being sacked midway through the following season.

And the Italian went up against his former employers for the first time at Craven Cottage on Wednesday, with James Maddison's late goal securing a share of the spoils for the Foxes following Aboubakar Kamara's opener.
