Burnley 2-1 Tottenham: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Clarets Stun Spurs With Battling Victory

Burnley stunned Tottenham in the Premier League as Sean Dyche's side produced a resolute performance to claim a 2-1 victory at Turf Moor on Saturday.

After a largely uneventful first half in which both sides struggled to create chances, Burnley stunned Tottenham as Chris Wood headed home from a Dwight McNeil corner just before the hour mark.

Spurs needed less than ten minutes to find a response as the returning Harry Kane raced clear of Burnley's defence to fire home into the bottom corner to draw the visitors level.

The game seemed to be drifting in the latter stages before Burnley stunned the visitors once more, as Ashley Barnes latched onto a scuffed ball across the box from Johann Gudmundsson to fire the home side ahead once more with less than ten minutes remaining.
