Idrissa Gueye urges his Everton team-mates to replicate the 'character' they showed in feisty Leicester draw in bid to avoid relegation... as midfielder praises 'cool guy' Sean Dyche's levelheaded experience

Idrissa Gueye praised the character on display from Everton in Monday's Premier League 2-2 against Leicester and urged his team-mates to stay confident as the team's relegation battle rolls on.

The match had been billed as 'loser goes down' with both teams starting the night in the relegation places.

Everton swiped the early lead before falling 2-1 behind the Foxes at Goodison Park but Jordan Pickford was the hero of the hour as he stood firm to save James Maddison's attempt from the spot before Alex Iwobi's equaliser saw the points shared at the final whistle.
