Chris Wood 

Welcome to the Clarets fan blog page. For all the Clarets supporters out there and football fans alike, get involved by showing love on this channel. A first Turf Moor defeat since New Year’s Day looked likely when Raul Jimenez scored with a superb 76th-minute volley to take Wolves closer to a European return. But Burnley dug deep to keep alive their slim hopes of making it to Europe themselves.

Six-and-a-half months after their last home defeat it looked as though the Clarets had finally run out of steam once Jimenez had scored his 27th goal of the season. But despite their struggle to make chances, the Clarets still found the resolved to get some reward and gain amends for the last-ditch penalty they conceded in a 1-1 draw at Molineux in August.

But Chris Wood was delighted to ‘make amends’ and went from zero to hero for the Clarets as he converted a penalty in the final seconds moments after missing a sitter from three yards.

Wood fired his spot kick into the top corner in the 96th minute after Matt Doherty was judged to have handled in the area. It earned Burnley a point that seemed unlikely after Raul Jimenez's fantastic volley gave the visitors the lead 16 minutes from time.

“We were just waiting for that one chance. Luckily at the end that came back to me, especially just after I had put that header wide,” said Wood, whose goal was his first since scoring against Tottenham in the last game before lockdown and took him to 12 for the season.

“I thought I’d waited all that time for one chance and I put it wide, so it was nice to make amends for that. I’d done an average finish, so it was nice to put it right.

“It’s about clearing your mind. It’s my job to do these types of things.

“That’s why I’m a striker and that’s what I’m here to - hopefully put the ball in the back of the net and thankfully I could do that.”

“We fight until the end and never give up. That’s the main thing about us and that’s what we’re so good at,” added Wood.

And it just about keeps alive hopes of a Europa League finish with the Clarets on 51 points with two games remaining. It means Burnley sit ninth in the Premier League, whiles Wolves remain sixth and three points off the top four.
