REPORT: Burnley 2 Parma 0

Jay Rodriguez fired the final shots of the phoney war as the Clarets ended their pre-season programme with another accomplished win.

Rodriguez’s second-half double made it back-to-back victories over European opposition with a week to go until the start of the Premier League season.

Italian top-flight outfit Parma made this a more difficult test than the 6-1 mid-week win over Nice.

But the Clarets still had enough about them to turn up the power and chalk up a morale-boosting success secured by two headers from the returning Rodriguez.

The summer signing followed his first goal back at Turf Moor again Nice with two more predatory efforts in front of the Jimmy McIlroy Stand.
