Everton failed to win, Ancelotti was reluctant to blame Pickford
2021-02-06 17:20LIVERPOOL - Everton coachCarlo Ancelotti is reluctant to blame goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who is considered to have made a mistake that led to the Toffees failure to win. Everton were held to a draw with Leicester City 1-1 at Goodison Park, Liverpool, Thursday (28/1).
The Italian tactician refused to criticize the England national team's first-choice goalkeeper, as he thought it would be of no use to Pickford.
"I have spoken with the players and agreed we have to win (match) on Saturday," said Ancelotti as reported by the Liverpool Echo , Thursday (28/1).
"I did not speak directly (to Pickford). I will not do it because I have no excuse."
Everton took the lead with a beautiful James Rodriguez goal in the 30th minute. But in the second half, Leicester surrounded the Everton goal with a neat passing game.
They finally got their prize when Youri Tielemans fired a low right-footed shot which Pickford seemed to have brushed off, but the ball slipped from his arms. Goal in the 67th minute made the score 1-1.
"In the end, they put pressure on us. Opponents did not get many opportunities. Their goals came from a difficult situation, so Jordan (Pickford) view is narrow," said Ancelotti defending his players.
