00:00Just heading out of Mont Neu, where Burnley have just claimed a massive 3-2 win against Wolves, the bottom side, absolutely massive, can't overestimate what that means to Burnley in their season, bonkers game, truly bonkers game, didn't look like Burnley were going to decide to steal it to be honest.
00:24Yeah, in the first half, they could have had the game rocked up, or they almost did, they went 2-0 up, two great goals from Zeon Fleming, his first goals in the Premier League, both assisted by Princey Hartman, the first one especially, the exceptional finish, almost sort of Robin van Persie-esque, that goal he scored on the net against Aston Villa all those years ago, and the way the fans were, the ground was, anger was starting to set in, chants about the board, against the board,
00:54I should say, and it felt like Burnley would just manage the game well, and see out the victory, their first away points of the season, but as it turned out, Wolves were gifted a soft looking penalty, I've still not seen an angle where I can decide, sort of decisively, one way or the other, Josh Cullen adjudged to kick the bottom of the Wolves player's foot, other angles, it looks like he sort of clearly wins the ball, so we'll have to see that again in a few other angles,
01:22but yeah, it was a soft one, and that changed the whole dynamic of the game, they scored the penalty, and within three or four minutes, they equalised, and at half time,
01:29I mean, you know, minutes before, we were too lucky and sort of coasting, and now 2-2 haven't played so well, second half, you should help that Wolves would come out, and establish their dominance,
01:40but they didn't really, Burnley would have a better side, start the second half, without creating that clear-cut chance,
01:45and then, as it sort of got towards the last 5-10 minutes, it looked like Wolves would have been more likely to get that winner,
01:53which would have been huge for them, still without a win, of course, and Vito Pereira, the manager, under massive pressure,
01:59but Burnley got their one chance, literally in the 95th minute, Hannibal off the bench, slipped it through to the other sub,
02:06Lyle Foster, and he does the rest with a really tidy finish, that's the goalkeeper, and, yes, but, wow, scenes of jubilation,
02:15all the sort of subs, and the ones that came off, and the ones that didn't even, you know, get involved in the game,
02:23running down the touchline, joining celebrations, the fans, celebrations, full-time, great celebrations as well,
02:30while at the other end, it was all sort of kicking off in the home ends with the manager and their fans,
02:35so, real contrast, but Burnley, such a great way to finish the game,
02:41and, yeah, first back-to-back wins in the Premier League since April 2022,
02:46first away points of the season, as I said, and now the five points clear of the bottom three,
02:53which is, yeah, massive distance to be in.
02:55On to ten points already, as I tweeted, it took them until December 23rd, sorry,
03:04when they've been to the company to reach ten points, and that one's Scott Parker,
03:08they've done it in nine games, which proves just well how they're doing this season in comparison to two years ago,
03:13it's a long way to go, but, yeah, really clunging the start to the season from Scott Parker's side.
