Chris Wood stars with goal as Burnley draw with Leeds

August 30, 2021

New Zealander Chris Wood's Burnley side have settled for a draw after conceding a late goal against Leeds United in the Premier League.

Neither side could find the net through the first hour until a lucky touch from Wood gave his side the lead.

But in the dying seconds Patrick Bamford scored for Leeds to draw the match and share the points.

Wood's goal was the 30,000th goal since the inception of the Premier League in 1992.
