📸 Should Leicester City be down to nine men in first half against Chelsea?

Date:

Leicester City may consider themselves lucky to only be a goal down at half time against Chelsea, and plenty will consider themselves lucky to still have 11 players on the pitch.

After Nicolas Jackson gave the Blues the lead in the 15th minute, the Foxes began to look a little ragged, with all three of their midfielders booked.

Some felt as though it should have been more too, with Wilfred Ndidi catching Cole Palmer on the achilles, though VAR opted not to intervene.

Then, midfield partner Boubacary Soumare was booked for a late challenge on João Félix, which looked somewhat out of control.

Should Leicester have been a man down at the break?

Let us know what you think in the comments!
