    When you have that much possession you have to end up with something and that's what Everton have done. It's the first time Ross Barkley has delivered a quality ball and Lukaku couldn't miss from there.

    It's just what Everton needed to get back in this game.

    That's a great goal, and this great game is back on level terms. Ross Barkley doesn't hang about this time, swinging in a great cross from the right which allows Romelu Lukaku to attack it and bury a low header into the net.

    Great.

    I'm trying to look at it as a neutral but it's very very hard. Everton are enjoying possession but that counts for nothing.

     I've been watching Ross Barkley carefully and he's having three, four, five, sometimes even six touches before making a pass. He has to see things a lot earlier.

    You would imagine that, with Wednesday's match against Atletico Madrid in mind, Jamie Vardy won't play the full 90 today.

    Leicester are moving into the top half as it stands. A top-half finish and at least a quarter-final in the Champions League would qualify as a good season wouldn't it?

    Everton seeing more of the ball still but Romelu Lukaku overhits his pass to Mason Holgate and the chance has gone.

    Jamie Vardy is a great outlet to have. It doesn't matter which part of the pitch he's on, he'll try and get there.

    A reminder that if Leicester do win today then Craig Shakespeare will join Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola as the only managers to win all of their first six Premier League games.

    The 'non-saving goalkeeper' is a new speciality in the Premier League. Like the striker who can't hit a barn door but 'puts a real shift in', I'm not so keen on a keeper who can't catch a cold but 'is great with his feet.'

    Remove three quarters of any team's regular back four and you'll see cracks, and Everton's defence is gaping open at times.

    There's no cover at all on their right and Leicester move it quickly to Demarai Gray, he gets a shot away and this time Joel Robles does save, saves well too with his feet.

    Robles shouldn't be beaten there. I don't think he was expecting him to go for goal and he's a big goalkeeper. He's 6ft 4 and has still been beaten.

    What a start to this game. They're both going for it.

    Three goals in the opening 10 minutes, this is great stuff to watch. For the neutral.

    Rubbish defending always equals great entertainment. Every attack looks likely to bring a goal as Kevin Mirallas puts a dangerous ball across the Foxes' bows now.

    Is that a cross?published at 16:11 British Summer Time 9 April 2017

    Everton 1-2 Leicester

    Leicester now lead! Jamie Vardy wins a free-kick on the left, Marc Albrighton delivers a great ball into the middle, I'm not convinced that it's a shot but it's good enough to beat Joel Robles and snake into the top corner.

    Robles started to come out, expecting a cross, and couldn't get back.

    Everton well on top possession wise, but both managers will be equally angry at the goal they conceded. Poor from both defences. Top entertainment.

    Two goals on the counter attack. This is what you expect from Leicester. It's a great finish from an acute angle by Slimani.

    Can they both keep this up? You can't underestimate them at the moment.
