Watch Vardy mock Crystal Palace fans with ‘Eagle celebration’ after taunts about wife Rebekah over Coleen Rooney spat

JAMIE VARDY brilliantly mocked Crystal Palace fans by doing an eagle celebration in front of the home supporters after putting Leicester 2-0 up at Selhurst Park.

The 32-year-old - who is now the Premier League's top scorer with ten goals - was mercilessly taunted with chants about his wife Rebekah's Twitter spat with Coleen Rooney.

Wayne Rooney's partner accused the former I'm a Celebrity star of leaking stories about her, a claim Rebekah Vardy strenuously denied.

And Palace fans teased the Foxes striker about the Wagatha Christie plot, but it was the former England international that had the last laugh.

Vardy brilliantly tucked home a free-flowing attack from the visitors to put his team two goals to the good, where he then decided to flap his arms like an eagle.

It's not the first time that Vardy has silenced the home fans after being targeted about his wife, after he cupped his ears to Burney supporters who heckled him with 'Rooney, Rooney' chants.

Football fans were loving his celebration against Palace, as one tweeted: "Jamie Vardy doing the ‘prancing bird’ celebration in front of fans who support a team nicknamed ‘The Eagles’ is peak s***housery."

Another said: "Vardy getting abuse all game and then giving it the eagle celebration in front of the palace fans was pretty funny tbh."

A third added: "Leicester City are the real deal but how about that celebration by Vardy tho. Flying like an eagle after sinking the EAGLES of Crystal Palace."

One commented: "Jamie Vardy did the eagle celebration to mock Crystal Palace in their own backyard. I can’t cope. Somebody hold me."

Another simply stated: "Vardy with the Eagle celebrations. Professional rustler. Love it!"

Leicester's win has lifted them above Chelsea into third spot in the table.

Brendan Rodgers' side face Arsenal at the King Power Stadium next weekend as they look to win their fourth consecutive league game.
