Both Vardy and Mahrez cheated. It was very clear. I thought the red was harsh, but on the other hand other Leicester players got away with plenty and Drinkwater certainly should have seen red. Mean while the handball in the box was a certain penalty and the shirt pulling on Giroud was another. A decent ref would have awarded us 2 pens, Leicester none and sent off one Leicester player plus booking for Vardy and Mahrez for cheating. The replays will show this clearly so it's uncertain why ex-footballers can't see it. Possibly a case of monkey see, monkey do.
