'Pray for Sanchez' - Tottenham fans destroy Arsenal attacker for antics v Leicester
By Danny Wright
Tottenham fans have taken to Twitter to destroy Alexis Sanchez for his antics against Leicester on Wednesday night.
In the final minutes of Arsenal’s 1-0 win over the Premier League champions, Christian Fuchs launched the ball into Sanchez’s shoulder from a throw-in.
The Arsenal attacker then took an age before deciding to throw himself to the floor clutching his face.
He was shown a yellow card by referee Mike Jones for simulation.

Sanchez posted a tweet after the game on his personal account, showing a picture of a split lip that he suffered from the impact of the ball.

Unsurprisingly, he has also been trolled by the Spurs supporters for it, who have said he could be a doubt for the North London derby this weekend.

Sunday’s clash will be the final north London derby to be held at White Hart Lane, and there is a lot at stake for Mauricio Pochettino and his squad.
They are just four points behind Chelsea after they earned a narrow 1-0 win at Crystal Palace thanks to Christian Eriksen’s 78th minute goal.
Antonio Conte’s side opened up a seven point gap on Tuesday as they brushed past Southampton with a 4-2 win.
Spurs’ final game at The Lane is against Manchester United on May 14.
