Kasper Schmeichel might have gotten away with that one.

There was a moment of controversy during Liverpool’s Premier League clash with Leicester City tonight. Reds captain Steven Gerrard went down in a heap inside the penalty area after colliding with Kasper Schmeichel.

The midfielder looked like he was going to take the ball around the keeper with ease until the contact with the Leicester goalkeeper sent him crashing down to the turf.

A lot of people felt that the ref should have awarded a penalty for the incident. Even Schmeichel looked a bit like he got away with a crime after the challenge. Check out his expression when he finds out the referee didn’t give the foul.
