The question was about .NET Core 2. Now I have a solution and I am going to write it here so that someone else could use it in case he/she needs it.

First of all we add the following method in dbContext class

public List ExecSQL(string query)
{
    using (var command = Database.GetDbConnection().CreateCommand())
    {
        command.CommandText = query;
        command.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
        Database.OpenConnection();

        List list = new List();
        using (var result = command.ExecuteReader())
        {
            T obj = default(T);
            while (result.Read())
            {
                obj = Activator.CreateInstance();
                foreach (PropertyInfo prop in obj.GetType().GetProperties())
                {
                    if (!object.Equals(result[prop.Name], DBNull.Value))
                    {
                        prop.SetValue(obj, result[prop.Name], null);
                    }
                }
                list.Add(obj);
            }
        }
        Database.CloseConnection();
        return list;
    }
}

Now we can have the following code.

List Customers = _context.ExecSQL("SELECT ......");
