Jamie Vardy’s penalty means Leicester stay on course for a first EFL Cup win in 19 years
Leicester City survived a second-half Everton comeback to win 4-2 on penalties after a 2-2 draw and set up a Carabao Cup semi-final with Aston Villa.
The Foxes had raced ahead with two goals in three first-half minutes from James Maddison and Jonny Evans.
But Tom Davies got Everton back into it with a volley before Leighton Baines' strike meant a shootout was needed.
Kasper Schmeichel made two saves before Jamie Vardy converted the decisive penalty to send Leicester through.
Victory means the Foxes have reached the League Cup semi-finals for the first time since the 1999-2000 campaign, when they went on to win the trophy.
Leicester will host Aston Villa in the first leg of the semi-final in the week commencing 6 January. (SuperSport)
