On Sunday afternoon, Martin Atkinson made a number of big mistakes.
Since the final whistle we’ve been making a big deal of the Danny Drinkwater and Marcin Wasilewski fouls, completely forgetting about the massive foul in the build-up to the divey Leicester penalty.
With play on the edge of the Leicester box, Mesut Ozil is used for a piggy back by a Foxes defender. Atkinson gives nothing, play springs up the other end, where he duly points to the spot because Jamie Vardy threw his leg into Nacho Monreal.
So, why did Atkinson not give the Ozil freekick?

What other explanation can there be, eh?
