The article humorously critiques a dismal Premier League match between Leicester and Southampton, dubbed by fans as 'El Chaffico' due to their collective failures on the pitch. Leicester hasn't scored at home for five months, while Southampton is on the brink of setting records for futility in the league. The piece highlights the absurdity of their situations, invoking social media memes and comparisons to historical low points in Premier League history, while questioning if these teams are truly as bad as their records suggest.
They're calling it the worst Premier League game in history. They're calling it El Chaffico. El Crapico. The Derby Della Mediocre. They're calling it the first Premier League game in which both teams somehow manage to lose.
Leicester have not scored at home in the league for five months. Southampton, in danger of equalling the lowest points total in Premier League history, have not kept a clean sheet in their past 17 league games.
