Leicester City scored twice in the last five minutes at Holmes Park to beat Everton 2-1 and finish as Group F winners.

Both sides had already qualified for the Round of 16, and the Toffees looked set to win the group when Alex Denny put them in front on 70 minutes.

But Kairo Edwards-John equalised at the far post in the 85th minute and two minutes later Hamza Choudhury (pictured) won it from the penalty spot, following a handball by Everton captain Antony Evans.

Leicester finished on 14 points, four ahead of Everton. Portsmouth and Barnsley missed out on qualification.
