Leicester City winger Harvey Barnes will be assessed on Sunday after he was substituted with an injury during the defeat to Manchester City.

Barnes, who set up Jamie Vardy’s opener, limped off after the hour following a heavy collision with Man City goalkeeper Ederson.

With Leicester trailing 2-1, Vardy crossed from the right and Barnes raced to meet it, the winger failing to get a strong contact on his finish before being clattered by the Brazilian stopper, causing Barnes to somersault into the net.

The 22-year-old sustained what looked like an ankle problem and although he tried to continue, he was quickly substituted for Marc Albrighton.

“It looks a sore one,” said Rodgers after the 3-1 loss . “We’ll see how that is tomorrow [Sunday]. It looked a sore one.”

There were suggestions that Ederson should have been penalised for his late challenge on Barnes, but Rodgers said there was enough people looking at the incident to rule that no penalty should have been awarded.

“I haven’t seen it, so I don’t have an opinion on it, but there’s a few telling me that it could have been a penalty,” Rodgers said.

“But there’s enough people looking at it now with VAR to say that it wasn’t. It would have been nice if it was.”
