The London team was defeated in four of their last matches in the English tournament (the only one they did not lose was against Guardiola’s). This Wednesday they suffered on their visit to Turf Moor, and although they had more control of the ball they could never assert the hierarchy of their players. Of 10 shots, only two went to the goal. And ineffectiveness proved costly.

Burnley locked the match with their compact scheme and took advantage of the height of their attackers to endanger Hugo Lloris’s goal. With that approach, after having had some good scoring chances, came the cry that broke the zero. It all came from a stopped ball from the right. Brownhill took a great cross to the far post and the defender Ben Mee pounced and ended up winning the position over Cuti Romero.
