Southampton 2-2 Burnley: Maxwel Cornet scores twice in entertaining draw

Maxwel Cornet scored twice as Burnley claimed a point in an entertaining draw with Southampton at St Mary's.

Burnley are yet to win this season but Cornet smashed in an impressive equaliser to share the spoils.

Cornet had given the visitors the lead before the impressive Tino Livramento equalised for Saints.

The hosts grew into the game and went in front when Armando Broja capitalised on James Tarkowski's mistake.

Cornet's third Premier League goal in as many starts was not enough to lift the Clarets out of the relegation zone and they remain 18th.

Saint drop to 16th after Watford's win at Everton, four points above Burnley.
