There’s always a sting in the tail.

Leicester City star man Jamie Vardy was sent off playing against West Ham this Sunday afternoon after being found guilty of simulation.

Vardy, who had fired the Foxes in front, picked up a second yellow card after referee Jon Moss judged the England striker to have dived in the penalty box.

The red card means Vardy will miss Leicester’s game against Swansea City next week.

Could this be the start of a momentum swing in the title race? Only time will tell.
