More cards
Traore was eventually booked for his part in the melee, and Lowton joins him for a foul moments later
Melee in the box
Podence takes flight in the Burnley area and stays down, Tarkowski is annoyed and tries to pick him up, and after an unsightly melee, Traore strikes Cork in the face. Somehow, Tarkowski is the only man penalised with a yellow. Traore survives a VAR check
Wood eyeing a hat-trick
Wood’s shot is comfortable for Patricio, after terrific interception from Brownhill
All Burnley
Wood’s nick sends Vydra down the left, and he charges on to the area, where Patricio stops him
Wood out in front
Lost in the joy of going 2-0 up, but Wood now Burnley’s leading Premier League scorer outright with 43, two more than Barnes
