Everton boosted their survival hopes thanks to a late equaliser from Richarlison against Leicester City on Wednesday.
Frank Lampard's side were behind for 85 minutes after Harvey Barnes opened the scoring at Goodison Park.
The Englishman turned in a cross from James Maddison to breach Jordan Pickford's goal.
Richarlison wasted several chances throughout the match, but the Brazilian made amends when it mattered most.
Maddison went close three times to extending Leicester's lead and the visitors were punished for their wastefulness when Richarlison turned in a scuffed shot with 92 minutes on the clock.
The Toffees are now four points clear of 18th-placed Burnley with seven games remaining.
Leicester remain in 9th with 41 points and look unlikely to breach the European qualification spots.
Speaking after the game, Everton skipper Seamus Coleman said: "It would have been great to have a game a bit sooner after the Manchester United game. Leicester keep the ball very well and scored early but we showed character. To score late on is really important.
"We were disappointed with ourselves [after going behind]. We wanted to take advantage of playing at Goodison. I thought we were more aggressive in the second half, we showed character and had plenty of chances to equalise. It was a deserved point in the end.
"We didn't get too high after beating United and we won't get too low about not beating Leicester. We're not taking it for granted. We just have to keep going. We are not in the position we want to be but we are where we are. We're fighting."
