Leicester City striker, Jamie Vardy, has been slapped with an additional one-game ban by FA for misconduct.

Vardy, the league’s second-highest goal scorer this season with 22 goals, angrily confronted Jon Moss, a referee, after picking up a second yellow card for diving, during Leicester’s 2-2 draw against West Ham on April 17.

The 29-year-old missed the Foxes’ 4-0 victory over Swansea, and will also be forced to miss Sunday’s match at Old Trafford, where a victory for Leicester could wrap up their first ever Premier League title.

Vardy, who was also fined £10,000, will be available for the final two matches of the season against Everton and Chelsea.
