Leicester boss Pearson frustrated by late Everton equaliser

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson was left frustrated after their 2-2 draw with Everton.

Just after Steven Naismith had put Everton ahead, Tim Howard pushed Jamie Vardy's shot into the path of David Nugent to allow the Foxes to equalise and soon after the goalkeeper flapped at a cross, and Esteban Cambiasso drove a low shot into the home goal.

Luckily for Howard and Everton, Romelu Lukaku's late diving header flew in after a huge deflection off Matthew Upson to snatch a point for the hosts.

"The dressing room is very disappointed because we did very well today," the Foxes boss said.

"We have got to turn these sort of performances into wins. There is not getting away from the predicament we find ourselves in but the performance was there today. We will have to bounce back."
