LEICESTER, England (Reuters) -Everton climbed out of the Premier League relegation zone with a hard-fought 2-1 win at Leicester City after defenders Vitalii Mykolenko and Mason Holgate scored at the King Power Stadium on Sunday. It was Everton’s only second league win on the road this season, having last won an away league game in August against Brighton & Hove Albion. To win 2-1 away from home – it feels like forever since we won away from home,” said goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who made stunning saves in the second half. The unmarked Holgate scored from close range after Richarlison’s header was beaten away by Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel following a corner. England international Pickford tipped away Nampalys Mendy’s curling effort and denied Barnes twice as Everton held on to their lead.
