Leicester Striker Seen Limping During Final Stages of 2-0 Brighton Win on Saturday

Leicester secured a valuable smash-and-grab win at Brighton on Saturday to boost their hopes of claiming seventh place and the final Europa League spot with it.

Vicente Iborra gave Leicester the lead seven minutes from time, before Jamie Vardy added a second on the counter-attack in the sixth minute of injury time. But some spectators noticed Vardy limping and took to social media sites, including Reddit, to speculate about the England striker's fitness.

Vardy scored for England against Italy on international duty but seemed to be feeling the effects of his excursions on Saturday as Brighton kept him quiet for most of the match.
