LEICESTER CITY fans have been trolled for “celebrating like Wii sports characters.”

The subdued celebrations came as the Foxes beat Cardiff 2-0 yesterday.

Goals from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and James Justin saw Leicester extend their lead at the top of the Championship table to eight points.

And Jamie Vardy’s side are looking good to seal automatic promotion back to the top flight.

However, some footy viewers could not resist poking fun at Leicester fans’ celebrations in the Welsh capital.

Defender Justin scored an absolute cracker in the 55th minute to put the second-tier game to bed.

And Foxes supporters rang in the party by jumping up and down on the spot.

However, their celebrations closely resembled those seen in Nintendo Wii sports games.

It led to some cheeky fans poking fun at the Leicester supporters on social media.

But the faithful Foxes are unlikely to care after moving one step closer to a Premier League return.

One supporter said: “Why are the Leicester fans celebrating like Wii sports characters?”

Another declared: “Best fans in the EFL.”

One noted: “Sooner they get to the Prem the better.”

Another added: “They’re happy their team scored.”
