Burnley 1 Southampton 1: Barnes' stoppage-time penalty salvages point

Ashley Barnes scored from the penalty spot in second-half stoppage time to claim a 1-1 draw for Burnley against Southampton.

Ashley Barnes' stoppage-time penalty salvaged a 1-1 draw for Burnley as they halted Southampton’s charge away from the Premier League relegation scrap.

Having been denied what seemed to be a clear spot-kick midway through the first half at Turf Moor, Barnes made no mistake from 12 yards to secure a share of the spoils late on.

Nathan Redmond's strike 10 minutes into the second half had looked set to be enough for Southampton, but Burnley rallied – Barnes denied by Alex McCarthy and the crossbar before debutant Peter Crouch headed into Jack Stephens' arm.
