Irish colleague Jeff Hendrick was an added time substitute while Kevin Long remained on the bench as the ‘Clarets’ came from behind to secure a two one victory at Huddersfield Town. West Ham United, with Declan Rice in midfield, recovered a two goal deficit to draw two all with London Stadium visitors Brighton & Hove Albion for whom Shane Duffy scored their second goal.
