Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers reveals which Everton player impressed him during Wednesday's draw

Leicester City head coach Brendan Rodgers has praised the "great quality" of James Rodriguez's goal for Everton - as he hailed one of his defenders for shackling a "top class" forward. The Toffees played a 1-1 draw with Leicester at home, as James and Youri Tielemans both scored for their sides. The Colombian latched onto a heavy touch from Foxes defender Wesley Fofana to curl a shot past Kasper Schmeichel and hand Everton the lead. However, in the second-half already Rodgers' side equalised the score. Everton struggled to create many chances - registering just eight attempts and only two of those were on target - and Rodgers believes Fofana did a great job of keeping Dominic Calvert-Lewin quiet. "James showed his quality," he said. "It was a fantastic goal." Foxes boss was then asked about Fofana's error in the build-up, saying: "I thought he was outstanding over the course of the game. "It was a heavy touch. It comes out [to Rodriguez] but I would rather focus on the number of aerial duels he won. "It was a heavy touch.
