Jamie Vardy has been charged by the Football Association and is facing an extra match ban.

Vardy is automatically banned for Swansea City’s visit on Sunday but could also sit out the following match against Manchester United.

Referee Jon Moses sent Vardy off and also charged Leicester with failure to control their own players.

Vardy’s case will be examined by a three-person independent disciplinary commission, who will have the use of video evidence to decide whether the player should be punished further. If found guilty, the likelihood is that Vardy will not play again until Leicester host Everton in their final home game of the season on 7 May.

Diego Costa has had his two-match suspension extended to three matches by an independent regulatory commission after admitting a charge of improper conduct over the manner of his departure from the pitch following his red card at Everton.

His reluctance to leave the pitch, and reaction at the referee’s decision, has earned him a further ban, a £20,000 fine and a warning as to his future conduct.

Costa is serving the second game of his original two-match suspension at Aston Villa on Saturday having incurred a one-game ban for the red card and a further match given it was effectively his second red card offence of the season following retrospective sanction over a clash with Arsenal’s Laurent Koscielny and Gabriel in September.
