Fernandinho could face 5-game ban if charged for Marc Albrighton elbow

This is a modal window.

Take a look back at a few questionable refereeing decisions made during Manchester City's narrow win over Leicester.

Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho faces the prospect of missing the start of next season if he is charged by the Football Association for a challenge on Leicester City midfielder Marc Albrighton.

Fernandinho, 32, appeared to catch Albrighton with his elbow in 65th minute of Man City's 2-1 win at the Etihad, with referee Bobby Madley taking no action against the Brazil international. Albrighton was left with a black eye.

If charged, Fernandinho would be handed a three-game ban for violent conduct.
