Burnley staged a remarkable comeback, securing an unexpected 2-2 draw against Fulham, with Chelsea loanee David Datro Fofana emerging as the hero. Despite Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Muniz giving Fulham a two-goal lead within 21 minutes at Turf Moor, Fofana's impact as a super sub turned the tide for Burnley.
Vincent Kompany's side faced boos from the home crowd at half-time as they struggled, but Fofana's introduction on his home debut injected life into the Clarets. Within seven minutes, he nodded in Lorenz Assignon's cross, providing Burnley with a glimmer of hope.
In added time, Fofana completed the turnaround by bundling Wilson Odobert's low cross over the line from close range, earning Burnley a valuable point. This comeback was particularly noteworthy as Burnley had not previously managed to salvage points after conceding first throughout the season.
Despite the draw, Burnley remains seven points from safety, especially with Luton securing a draw at Newcastle. On the other hand, Fulham's struggles continue, with just one win in their last seven matches, reflecting their recent poor form.
