EPL: Tottenham 1-1 Burnley


Chris Wood scores stoppage time equaliser

Tottenham's struggles at Wembley continued as Chris Wood struck late on for Burnley to earn a dramatic 1-1 draw.


Spurs, who have now won just two of 12 matches at the national stadium, went ahead after 49 minutes thanks to Dele Alli's low finish.

But Wood, making his first Premier League appearance for the Clarets since his club-record move from Leeds, lashed home an equaliser in stoppage time (90+2).

The result means Tottenham's wait for a league win at Wembley will extend past the international break, while Burnley have taken four points from trips to Chelsea and Spurs.

The visitors' game-plan worked perfectly in the first half as they blunted Tottenham's attack and threatened from set-plays.

James Tarkowski flashed a header over before reacting sharply in his own box to block Harry Kane's shot from close range.

But Burnley fell behind four minutes after the break when Alli scored his second goal of the new season. The England international reacted quickest after Ben Mee failed to clear a corner, converting at the second attempt past Tom Heaton.

Kane, one goal short of a century for Tottenham in all competitions, had several second-half opportunities but failed to break his August duck.

Heaton denied his England team-mate twice and also saved smartly from Alli as Spurs pushed for a second to make the points safe.

But Burnley battled back into the game as Sean Dyche introduced Wood, swapping Robbie Brady to the right flank, and the two combined to earn a deserved draw.
