And former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher joined us on Sky Sports News HQ on Monday morning to review the incidents in his regular Ref Watch feature.Should Jamie Vardy have been sent off? Should he receive an extended ban? And what about those late penalty shouts? Read on for the expert verdict... INCIDENT: Jamie Vardy receives a yellow card in the 28th minute for a lunge on Cheikhou Kouyate, despite not appearing to make contact with the West Ham player. Vardy was booked for this challenge on Kouyate GALLAGHERS VIEW: The ref has penalised him for persistent misconduct.GALLAGHER SAYS: In isolation, its not a yellow card, but whats happened is he has spoken to him just before. Vardy had committed two fouls just prior and if you watch the tape, the referee goes to Vardy privately and says to him Im going to have to book you if you continue. For the next tackle, he takes action against him.The mistake the referee has made is that he has spoken to him in private, but if youre looking to yellow card a player for persistent misconduct on the next tackle, he really needs to make it public to everybody so the whole 30,000 crowd knew. His problem was he didnt. If you look at the tackle in isolation, youd say its not a yellow card, but in the bigger scheme of things, it is. The referees mistake was that he didnt sell it to everybody. Vardy didnt touch him with the challenge, but caught him with the follow-through and at that point, he has decided to yellow card him.INCIDENT: Vardy receives a second yellow card for simulation and is sent off, after tumbling in the penalty area under a challenge from Angelo Ogbonna. Vardy was given a second yellow card for simulation GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Its definitely a dive for me. The law says acting to try and deceive the referee and theres no doubt in my mind hes trying to win a penalty there. I dont think he is fouled. He initiates the contact and goes into the player, then bounces off him. Somebody said to me he had been given a pull, but if youre pulled back, you dont go flying through the air. I think that sold it to the referee.The referee has to make a choice: has he tried to deceive me to win a penalty? We look back now and its not really about that decision. Its about the first yellow card, because that has impacted so heavily on the second one.INCIDENT: Vardy reacts angrily to his red card, but could he face an extended ban for pointing his finger and shouting at the referee? Vardy reacted angrily to his red card GALLAGHERS VIEW: It depends what was said.GALLAGHER SAYS: It depends on what Jamie has said to the referee and if it was offensive, insulting or abusive. As such, he could be facing down the barrel of a further charge. It happened quickly and he was angry, but we dont know what was said. Only Jon Moss knows that, and thats what will follow through. Is it offensive? Is it insulting? Is it abusive? It all hinges on that.INCIDENT: West Ham are awarded a penalty in the 84th minute when Wes Morgan iis penalised for holding onto Winston Reid.dddddddddddd Morgan conceded a penalty for tugging Reid GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: I think he has got to give it and the reason is because he has made such a big point just beforehand with both Morgan and Huth, saying Im watching you.Its quite perverse to be sat here today. One of the things weve talked about over and over again is everybody wanting referees to be more proactive and to give more penalties - but when suddenly a referee gives a penalty, we dont like it. Its a double jeopardy.INCIDENT: In the 90th minute, Robert Huth goes down in the penalty area after being held by Ogbonna. It looks similar to West Hams penalty, but the referee doesnt award a spot kick. Huth was not given a penalty for this incident GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decisionGALLAGHER SAYS: Its what he sees. I think he sees Huth foul as well. When the ball comes in, Ulloa had his arm on somebody and theres so much going on in the game, it was unbelievable. Both penalty areas were littered with people pushing and shoving and I think there comes a point where the referee has got to step in. When he stepped in, he pulled out Huth and Morgan and said I have got to do you for the next one.I can 100% see the frustration of the fans, but I can also understand why its so difficult for the referee because hes got to pick the right one.INCIDENT: Five minutes into injury time, Jeff Schlupp goes down under slight contact from Andy Carroll and this time, Jon Moss does point to the spot to give Leicester the chance to snatch a late draw. Watch the moment Leicester were awarded an injury-time penalty and make up your own mind GALLAGHERS VIEW: Wrong decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Its not a penalty. One thing I am is consistent. I sat here last week and watched Damien Delaney go into Matt Jarvis and I said it wasnt a penalty - and this one is nowhere near. Carroll has been strong, his arm is by his side and Schlupp has seen him coming and knows theres going to be contact. Its what Id call a coming-together and the minute he has touched him, he has gone down.
