Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti says they'll quickly move on from their FA Cup defeat to Manchester City.

Ancelotti insists Everton have “no regrets" following Saturday's FA Cup exit to Manchester City – and the experience of competing with “the best team in the world" will spur his team's European push.

“We were almost there. I think we did well, we did the best we can do, defending well and fighting," said Ancelotti.

“We had the game under control for at least for 80 minutes, we didn't concede opportunities.

“Of course, we didn't have a lot of opportunities, some set pieces, but that was absolutely normal.

“I am satisfied because we competed well against the best team in the world, in this moment, I think they are the best.

“We are upset because we are out of an important competition… but it was a good experience for us.

“I think there are no regrets. The regrets are the game against Burnley, where we didn't use this type of concentration, or the game against Fulham [Premier League defeats in the past five weeks]."
