With yet another missed opportunity spurned by the Blues, we have a look at five things we learned from Saturday afternoon’s game against Leicester City.
Riyad Mahrez scored the first goal when Everton conceded a penalty after a naive foul from Funes Mori. The winger duly put the ball in the net.
Everton equalised not long after, Ross Barkley had two shots blocked on the line before Romelu Lukaku smashed in the rebound from the centre of the box.
The Blues were not able to find another breakthrough and after a smart run from Jamie Vardy who was brought down by Tim Howard in the box, Mahrez stepped up to convert his second penalty of the game, this time sending the American the wrong way.
Shinji Okazaki doubled Leicester’s lead after some more stupid play from Everton while Kevin Mirallas halved the deficit in stoppage time.
