Leicester centre-back Evans 'disappointed' with Europa League exit

Leicester City centre-back Jonny Evans was left deflated after another poor defensive display against Napoli on Thursday.

The Foxes are out of the Europa League after going down 3-2 in Naples.

They haver now gone 21 games against Premier League and Europa League opposition without keeping the ball out of their own net.

Evans told BT Sport: "Disappointed. We're out of the Europa League. Didn't play or didn't get the result we wanted. Didn't defend as well as we want either.

Asked how the Foxes stop the flow of goals against them, Evans added: "That's the question.

"We're looking for it at the minute.

"It's probably been the story of our season. We're not quite defending well and it's something we need to have a look at and get back to."
