Burnley Moves Into Champions League Places

| EPL: Burnley moves into UCL places |
It is more than 40 years since Burnley have occupied such a lofty position and their joy was in direct contrast to the emotions of Mark Hughes and his Stoke players.
The defeat continued Stoke's worst start to a Premier League season, and they could drop closer to the relegation zone on Wednesday.
This was certainly a night where a lack of character was not an option.
Freezing rain swept across Turf Moor as the players took to the pitch and, no doubt with Hughes' words ringing in their ears, Stoke set about trying to rectify some of Saturday's damage.
The game appeared to be petering out, but, with just a minute of normal time remaining, a long ball was headed down by Barnes to Scott Arfield.
Arfield played it back to Barnes just inside the area and he sent a fine finish flying past Butland and into the bottom corner.
