(Video): Why Jamie Vardy wasn’t offside on Leicester goal

Chelsea are 2-0 down against Leicester, and they can’t complain too much.

They’ve been second best, didn’t take their chances, and were defensively naive.

But to make things worse, one eagle eyed fan spotted that perhaps the second Leicester goal should not have been given.

Earlier in the move Jamie Vardy sprinted back from an offside position to challenge for the ball and set the attack in motion. The evidence is there for all to see, but VAR didn’t pick up on it.

Wait! We have the solution – what you don’t see in this replay is that it’s a goal kick, so you can’t be offside. Shame.

We could find only one video of the right angle of the incident, with footage from Sky Sports, which is embedded here:
