Match report: Reds held by Burnley in Anfield draw

Liverpool dropped their first points at Anfield this season in their penultimate home game after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley on Saturday.

After relentless pressure on the Clarets’ goal, the breakthrough arrived just after the half-hour mark when Andy Robertson headed home from a Fabinho delivery.

Burnley drew level midway through the second half when Jay Rodriguez fired in from a knockdown following a free-kick into the area.

The champions pushed in search of a winner in response, but it was the visitors who went closest as Johann Gudmundsson rattled the crossbar in the final stages.
