Albrighton was caught by the Brazilian's flailing arm during Leicester's defeat on Saturday.

"I have sympathy for Marc because he is in there with a black eye and a bruised eye but we have looked at the replay and there is no intent from Fernandinho," said Shakespeare.

"It is a competitive challenge, his arms were raised but there is no intent there to do Marc any damage and Marc understands that as well."
