Matej Vydra produced a moment of magic to end his goalscoring drought and keep Burnley looking up in the Premier League after inflicting defeat on a Southampton side still nervously peering over their shoulder.
Vydra, a first-half substitute, scored his first goal for 511 days to fire Sean Dyche’s side to victory in filthy conditions on the south coast after a freakish goal by Ashley Westwood opened the scoring. Danny Ings cancelled out Westwood’s strike direct from a corner, his 15th goal of the season, but Burnley held on to earn victory over Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side.
