LEI 0-2 EVE: RICHARLISON, HOLGATE PUNISH FOXES AT THE KING POWER STADIUM.

Goals by Richarlison and Mason Holgate made it back-to-back victories for Everton as they won 2-0 at Leicester City.

Richarlison put Everton in front after 21 minutes, cutting in from the left before unleashing a low drive from 20 yards out that Kasper Schmeichel couldn’t prevent from finding the bottom-right corner.

Leicester responded, with Cengiz Under forcing Everton goalkeeper Robin Olsen into a save, while Abdoulaye Doucoure produced a well-timed challenge to deny Jamie Vardy.

Youri Tielemans dragged a shot wide for Leicester early in the second half before Holgate fired in from close range to double Everton’s advantage.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side move up to fifth position on 23 points, on place and a point behind Leicester.
