Jamie Vardy is awaiting to learn whether he will be charged with misconduct over his reaction to a red card for diving. The Football Association is expected to respond after receiving the referee Jon Moss’s report on Monday and will scrutinize it before taking a decision.
Vardy was sent off after two books, one for poor tackling and the second booking for diving. Any case would be examined by a three-person independent disciplinary commission, including with the use of video evidence. If charged and found guilty Vardy, whose alleged dive earned him a second yellow card, would be likely to have his one-game suspension extended by a match.
Vardy scored an opening stunner in 2-2 draw against West Ham on Saturday. Currently, Leicester tops EPL table followed by Spurs, Manchester City, Arsenal and Manchester United closing the top five.
