Premier League: Arfield late show breaks Everton hearts

Canada international Scott Arfield's 90th-minute winner earned Burnley an improbable 2-1 victory over a dominant Everton at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Everton impressed in a 1-1 draw with Manchester City last weekend and were looking to close to within a point of Pep Guardiola's side in the Premier League table.

But after Yannick Bolasie had cancelled out Sam Vokes's opener for Burnley, Arfield slid home at the death to lift Burnley three points clear of the relegation zone and prevent Everton breaking into the top four.

It was only a second win in seven league games for Sean Dyche's Burnley as Ronald Koeman's Everton registered a fourth successive match without victory.

Koeman made two changes to his starting XI, recalling Ross Barkley and bringing in Kevin Mirallas, who warmed home goalkeeper Tom Heaton's palms with an early effort following a Bolasie surge.

Barkley was left on the bench for the draw at Manchester City and he signalled his determination to prove his worth to Koeman with a powerful strike that Heaton pushed away.

Everton totally dominated the opening stages, seeing over 70 percent of possession in the first half hour.

But it was Burnley who took the lead, six minutes before half-time, after a blunder by goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg.
