Vydra: I'm So Happy

It was cometh the hour cometh the man as Matej Vydra came off the bench to send the Clarets storming into the top half of the Premier League.

Vydra ended his goal drought in a south-coast storm to give Burnley a magnificent 2-1 win at Southampton.

The Czech – an early substitute for the injured Chris Wood – crashed home an unstoppable volley to claim his first top-flight goal since netting against Bournemouth in September, 2018.

And his 60th-minute strike was enough to give Sean Dyche’s in-form side a third win in four games after ex-Claret Danny Ings had cancelled out Ashley Westwood’s early opener to continue his hot streak.
