Former Leicester City man Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall celebrated scoring in Everton's Premier League win over Coventry City by taking aim at the Foxes' rivals.
Dewsbury-Hall continued his fine form this season for the Toffees with a goal on Friday night. The midfielder scored in the 81st minute to make sure of the three points after Thierno Barry scored twice in five minutes.
The former Foxes man was booed by Coventry's away following inside the Hill Dickinson Stadium and after the game, the Shepshed-born responded to a tweet on X that pointed towards the fact that he joined James Maddison in scoring against Frank Lampard's men after being booed.

His performance on Friday night came just hours after learning that he had been overlooked by England manager Thomas Tuchel for this month's Nations League fixtures. The 28-year-old was tipped to earn a place in the Three Lions' squad, but Jobe Bellingham was selected instead.
"It was a disappointing morning, I'm not going to lie," he told Sky Sports. "It's a massive dream of mine to play for my country. I know I was close.
