Jamie Vardy's Unusual Reaction To A Missed Chance Raises Eyebrows

Fans were left puzzled by Jamie Vardy’s reaction to a missed opportunity during Leicester’s 2-0 victory over Watford. In the 73rd minute, Vardy, provided with an excellent chance by Stephy Mavididi, saw his volley go over the bar as he attempted to strike with his weaker left foot. Expressing visible disappointment, Vardy collapsed to the ground and, upon getting back up, delivered a forceful punch to the side of his own head—a move that left fans on Twitter bewildered.

While some fans questioned the reason behind Vardy’s self-directed punch, others shared their confusion, with one stating, “Why did he do that?” Despite the unusual reaction, Vardy bounced back and went on to score two goals in the game. Just three minutes after the incident, he netted the first goal, and a penalty in the 96th minute sealed Leicester’s 2-0 victory.

The victory allowed Leicester to maintain their dominance in the Championship, reopening a three-point gap at the top of the table over Ipswich, reaffirming their status as a formidable force in the league.

Here is the highlight video of Leicester City vs. Watford, which ended with a 2-0 victory for Leicester.
