Watch: Jamie Vardy blows injured referee's whistle to halt play during Leicester's 2-0 victory over Southampton

Minutes after scoring his 199th goal for Leicester City, Jamie Vardy blew David Webb’s whistle to halt Southampton’s attack after the referee was left clutching his face on the ground following a collision with Jordan Ayew.
