Leicester boss Pearson delighted with Everton point

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson was pleased with their 2-2 draw against Everton.

Leicester are back in the Premier League for the first time in a decade and Pearson had no doubt they deserved their point.

"It's nice to get something out of the game," he said. "I'm disappointed that we've been unable to win.

"We went behind twice, and from my perspective there was an element of misfortune about both goals, not doubting the quality of the finishes. The first finish was unbelievable.

"It would have been easy, especially with the second goal, to think things weren't going our way, but I'm very pleased with how we responded and in the second half we looked pretty dangerous."
