Leicester City boss Claude Puel says Jamie Vardy unexpectedly sprinted down the tunnel at the Emirates Stadium on Monday night because he was still thinking about the Foxes were denied.
Arsenal ran out 3-1 winners over Puel's men after coming back with Hector Bellerin's own goal giving the visitors an unexpected lead.
Mesut Ozil stripped home the equaliser shortly before the break, and a second half brace of substitute Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang secured a 10th win in a row in all competitions for the Gunners.
But the result could have been different since the beginning of the game.

Puel was still fuming about the game, and joked that Vardy could not get over it.
When he said to explain why he ran the tunnel he said, via the Leicester Mercury: "Jamie was ill and he could not come back out. You need to speak with him [to see when his illness came on].

"I think it started in the second half. He could not digest the penalty decision. "
Puel went on to criticize Kavanagh.
"I'm angry about it because of all my work," he said.
"I thought it was a penalty, we saw this from the bench." All the people in the stadium saw this was a penalty – it was handball.
"It is not possible to have another decision other than a penalty, and also it was another yellow card and sending off.
"But I regret this decision because all of the people in this state of affairs have been wrong."
