Leicester consider Vardy red card appeal

Leicester City will consider appealing against striker Jamie Vardy's red card in Saturday's draw at Stoke.

Vardy, 29, is set to receive a three-match ban after being sent off for a 28th-minute tackle on Stoke midfielder Mame Diouf.

The Potters went on to take a 2-0 lead before Leicester rescued a point with two goals in the final 15 minutes.

Ranieri, when asked if he will contest the red card, said: "I don't know, let me think. If it's possible, yes."

After tussling with Glen Johnson, Vardy jumped and made the tackle with both feet on Diouf but won the ball, and the contact the Leicester man made with the Stoke player was with his shins.
