Read our privacy policy Jamie Vardy scored a welcome equaliser against Wales to ease fears among England fans who feared that worst after Gareth Bale’s opener, with concerns that the Leicester striker’s effort was offside banished after it was revealed to be a header from Ashley Williams that knocked the ball down for him to power into the net. The former Sky Sports presenter – now working out in the Middle East with Bein Sports, believed that the linesman should have flagged for offside – even though he accepted it wasn’t offside. Taking to Twitter, he wrote: “Somehow the officials have got that right - but surely the lino should still flag?” Needless to say, Keys’s statement makes no sense whatsoever.
