Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti calls on his players to 'keep fighting' in pursuit of top four place in the Premier League after clinical victory over Leicester

Carlo Ancelotti warned Everton that they cannot afford to slip up in the race for the Champions League after a clinical 2-0 win at Leicester.

Goals from Richarlison and Mason Holgate clinched victory at the King Power Stadium as the Toffees closed the gap to the top four.

They are fifth in the Premier League, just a point and a place behind the Foxes, after building on Saturday's victory over Chelsea.
