    Leicester 0-0 Everton

    It ends goalless at the King Power and neither side looked too likely to break that deadlock.

    Janina Leitzig was called into action late on to deny Aggie Beever-Jones the best chance of the game from close range.

    It's an important point for Leicester, which takes them to within a point of Women's Super League safety.

    A big chance late on for Leicester as Hannah Cain is found in the box, but she can't find the target. It's been the story of their afternoon.
