September 21, (THEWILL) – Leicester City and Everton remain winless in the 2024 English Premier League season after a 1-1 draw at the King Power Stadium. The match, played in heavy rain, saw both teams eager to break their losing streaks.
Everton opened the scoring in the 11th minute through Iliman Ndiaye. The forward created space in the box before firing a precise shot that went in off the left post, giving Sean Dyche’s team an early advantage.
Leicester equalised with 17 minutes remaining. Stephy Mavididi reacted quickly to a Harry Winks corner, capitalising on Everton’s defensive lapse to level the score.
The result moves Everton up to 19th place in the league table on goal difference, while Leicester now sit in 15th position. Both teams will be looking to build on this point in their upcoming fixtures.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, both sides showed determination to claim their first victory of the campaign. However, they had to settle for a point each, leaving both managers with work to do in the coming weeks.
