Late heartbreak against West Ham saw Burnley slump to a seventh consecutive home defeat of the campaign.

Vincent Kompany’s men looked to be heading to their first home win of the season thanks to Jay Rodriguez’s penalty.

But the Hammers struck twice late on – in the 86th minute and the 91st – to condemn the bottom side to another costly defeat.

Here’s how Burnley’s players rated...

Looked to be heading to a long-awaited clean sheet, but those plans were wrecked during a horrid final few minutes.

Injected some energy and enthusiasm down the right flank in support of Gudmundsson. Defended well in the main.

Made some important blocks but ought to have done better with a header and looked to have got a touch for West Ham’s equaliser.

Defended well and brought the ball out from the back, which helped set up attacks. Booked for a pull back.
