Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has been charged with improper conduct by the Football Association, following his actions in the 2-2 draw with West Ham.
Vardy was sent off by referee Jon Moss, picking up a second booking for similuation, and his reaction to the dismissal has drawn an FA charge. The forward had previously given Leicester the lead, before Andy Carroll and Aaron Cresswell hit a quickfire double to put West Ham in the driving seat.
The Foxes eventually battled back with 10 men to grab a share of the points through Leonardo Ulloa's last-gasp equaliser.
A statement on the governing body's website read: "Leicester City's Jamie Vardy has been charged with improper conduct for his behaviour following his second-half dismissal against West Ham United on Sunday 17 April 2016.
"Leicester have also been charged for failing to control their players following the awarding of an 83rd-minute penalty to West Ham.
"Both the player and the club have until 6pm on Thursday 21 April 2016 to reply to their charge."
