Many Leicester City fans have been left to slam Anthony Taylor during the first half of their home game against Manchester City in the Premier League.

The referee decided to give Pep Guardiola's men a dangerous free kick on the edge of the box in what looked like quite a soft foul.

Kevin De Bruyne ended up taking the set piece and hit the cross bar in what was a big sigh of relief for the East Midlands club.

Nonetheless, this did not stop several members of the King Power faithful slamming the decision on Twitter, as they felt that if that shot had gone in, in which it nearly almost did, then they would have been very hard done by in what is already a difficult game for them against MCFC.
