Brendan Rodgers is in awe of the spirit shown by his Leicester City squad.

The Foxes came from behind to beat Everton on Sunday, reducing their gap to Liverpool to eight points.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Rodgers said: "I thought we deserved it. It was difficult in the first half, they sat in but we tried to stay positive and play our offensive game. To come from behind as well demonstrates the quality and mindset of this team to keep going.

"In any good team you have to have that. The best teams have spirit. This is a team that is so strong together. Kelechi is a wonderful demonstration of someone who trains with a great attitude every day. They allow this team to develop to the level it has been at because they work hard in training."
