A stoppage-time header from defender Michael Keane rescued a point for Championship leaders Burnley in a dramatic 2-2 draw at thirdplaced Brighton, yesterday.

Dale Stephens gave Brighton the lead before Andre Gray levelled and Anthony Knockaert restored the hosts’ advantage on the stroke of half-time in front of a season’s-high Amex Stadium crowd of 29,683.

Burnley were controversially denied an equaliser in the 88th minute when a Keane header from substitute Matthew Taylor’s corner was not given as a goal by referee Craig Pawson, although replays clearly showed the ball had crossed the line.
