LOOK at the key stats and moments from the game against Huddersfield Town.
BURNLEY
MARLON BERESFORD Miracle man Marlon was magnificent. Let's face it, if it had gone to penalties he would still not have been beaten...9
MARK McGREGOR Had his blushes spared by his keeper after selling him short before clearing off the line himself from the follow up...6
IAN COX Lucky not to see a red card after his error sent Thorrington through. Looked to drag him down but escaped...7
ARTHUR GNOHERE Won a lot of balls in the air and also showed his strength on the ground when needed...7
LEE BRISCOE Put in some fine crosses as he broke forward from left but had a couple of worrying moments against pacy Thorrington...6
TONY GRANT Played the killer ball that set up the only goal and played the ball around efficiently...7
STEVE DAVIS Pushed into midfield he looked a lot happier when there were four across the middle and did force a great stop from the keeper...7
ALAN MOORE Nowhere near his form of this time last year and did little to help his side break down the home defence...5
IAN MOORE Never got going and his late booking summed up a frustrating night that saw him out on the right flank again...6
GARETH TAYLOR Had one header off the line, forced one good save with another one but missed chances on the deck...6
ROBBIE BLAKE Some lovely little touches but did not get a clear sight of goal before he was removed from the action...7
