BURNLEY 1 STOKE 1
Full time
90+1 McDonald curls one just wide in the first of three extra minutes
90 Sweeping move upfield by the Clarets and Eagles finally fires over from the edge of the penalty area.
83 Kitson turns and fires at Jensen as Stoke feel they have the momentum
77 Jordan replaces Fox
76 Fox's deep free kick is headed back across goal by Carlisle, who might have gone for goal, and Paterson can't quite get under the ball
71 Thompson, who has been terrific, makes way for Elliott
70 Eagles' from fully 35 yards with a rasper, which Sorenson gets down to and makes the save
67 This is a humdinger now. Burnley have really upped the tempo and it's anyone's game
64 Double substitution for Stoke, with Sidibe and Lawrence making way for Pugh and Kitson
56 Oh so close! Paterson drills in a low cross from the right and Sorensen palms it back into the danger zone at full stretch, but there's no Burnley player on hand to tap home
52 GOAL! 1-1 Paterson picks out a peach of a cross from the right and Nugent rises high above Huth to plant home a firm header from six yards. Game on at the Turf!
47 Eagles, who has been a real shining light, goes on the charge again and goes over on the edge of the box under a challenge from Delap, but there's no foul
46 McDonald on for Cork at the break
38 Eagles again opens up Stoke with a delightful ball to the far post, where Paterson sneaks in behind the last defender but stabs his effort wide
23 GOAL! 0-1 Disaster strikes from the most predictable of sources. Delap's bombed throw into the box is flicked on and Tuncay does the rest from six yards with another near post header.
21 A good little spell of pressure from the Clarets, but still neither keeper has been troubled
17 From the corner Fox drives for the near post, but Sorenson scuffs it around the post
16 Great vision from Eagles to put Cork clear but he tries to pass to Paterson to his right from 18 yards instead of shooting and the pass is underhit and cleared
14 Burnley free kick lands at Paterson's feet, but when the ball is returned to Eagles, his shot is wild and wide
12 All quiet so far, but Stoke have made by far the better start
3 Early long throw from Delap forces a corner, which comes to nothing. It;s not football, but what a weapon!
2 a nervy start for both teams, with points of real importance to the Clarets
