Next Spurs at home.
3rd EPL goal of the season for the Woodsman, who subbed off for J-Rod at 80 mins (score 3-3).
Wood's 50th EPL goal. A bit ugly but you take it. Typical Burnley goal really. Big congrats to him. I hope NZF at least nominate him for NZ Sportsperson of the year, but in an Olympics year he'll never make the shortlist.
On the other hand terrific strike by new fan favourite Cornet (4 goals in 6 starts). Vydra on for Cornet with a late chance to win it.

Cornet actually has 5 now (Wood on 3). It could end up being an interesting golden boot race for Burnley this year!
I think Wood looks better playing next to Cornet, opposition knows Cornet is dangerous, and he's fast, so takes some pressure off Wood and creates a bit more space for him.
I've managed to get up and watch all the matches this season (yay, for being made redundant meaning I don't care about sleep times!) and thought it was one of Woods better matches this season, and this is after playing in the middle east just a few days before too. Seems to be getting his confidence back and looking a bit sharper, which wasn't hurt by his 2 goals for the All Whites!
