Tyler Roberts (Rodrigo 73’) N/A – Got his teeth into a physical match with a few tackles but couldn’t make much impact. Reuters
BURNLEY RATINGS: Nick Pope 7 – Had to deal with Leeds pressing early on and made an important stop just before half time when Bamford’s low cross offered a threat. Getty
Matthew Lowton 6 - Did well to keep the Leeds attack quiet with some smart blocks, but his opponents sometimes get the better of him. Reuters
James Tarkowski 7 - A busy game encapsulated by several displays of no-nonsense defending to thwart the visitors. His header from McNeil’s corner ricocheted off the bar and began a ping-ball in the box ahead of Wood’s opener. Reuters
Ben Mee 6 - Kept the ball alive following Tarkowski’s header on to the bar for Burnley to pressure the Leeds defence. Later blocked a cross from Raphinha into the box but saw his clearance roll into Shackleton’s pass. Getty
Charlie Taylor 6 - Recovered early on from Ayling’s run behind and, overall, did well to keep Raphinha quiet. Getty
Johann Gudmundsson – 7 A positive outlet on the wing for the home side who saw his first half opportunity curl wide. Getty
Josh Brownhill 6 - Booked for a sliding tackle to stop Bamford’s run. A long-distance shot in the 59th minute saw Meslier diving after a lay off from Wood, but it was always going wide. Getty
Ashley Westwood 7 - Returned to the starting line-up and was always a threat with his deliveries into the box. AP
Dwight McNeil 7 - Produced an excellent challenge in the first half to win possession. He followed this with an increasingly positive display in the second half; saw a shot deflected just wide of the post, but it lead to the corner which would see Burnley take the lead. Getty
Chris Wood 7 - Hard working first half from the striker but he saw his best effort in the first half flagged for offside. He scored a deserved goal in the second half to start his tally for the season. Getty
Ashley Barnes 6 - Lovely link-up play with Woods, leading to Gudmundsson’s curling shot. He also saw his shot own pushed wide in the first half. Did well in a very physical match. Getty
SUBS: Aaron Lennon (Gudmundsson 63’) 6 – Won a free-kick following a physical battle with Dallas, but Westwood’s corner came to nothing. Booked. Getty
Matej Vydra (Barnes 79’) N/A – A return to the pitch following injury for the Czech striker, but he could do little as Leeds fought their way back into the game. Getty
LEEDS RATINGS: Illan Meslier 6 - Looked shaky in the air during the opening stages but faced Burnley’s threats well. He was off balance for Burnley’s goal and wouldn’t have been happy to see the ball roll over the line. Important save in the final stages to keep Wood out. Reuters
Luke Ayling 5 - Lost the ball to a hurrying McNeil and was lucky his team were able to deal with the ball. Could have done better to monitor Wood for the opener. Getty
Diego Llorente 5 - First game back after injury and was let off the hook after being caught out of position. Important header from a corner to stop Ben Mee in the air in the second half, but shaky at times. Getty
Pascal Struijk 6 - Important interception to stop a through ball to Wood in the second half and another touch to take McNeil’s shot out for a corner. Did well against Barnes and Wood. Getty
Liam Cooper 6 - Stopped Wood during a period of Burnley domination in the first half. A combination of his and Llorente’s headers fell into Wood’s path ahead of the goal, but overall did well at the back. Getty
Stuart Dallas 6 - Busy on the left but not an easy game against Gudmundsson. Saw a late shot blocked. Getty
Kalvin Phillips 6 - Struggled to contain McNeil for parts of the game and though he had moments of an attacking presence, he couldn’t make his stamp on the game. Getty
Raphinha – 7 Should have done better in the first half with a shot that went wide. Found himself out of the game for much of the 90 but came good in the final stages for the goal. Reuters
Rodrigo 6 - Came in for Mateusz Klich who was missing after testing positive for Covid, but had a much quieter game than he would have wanted. Getty
Jack Harrison 7 – Some lovely crosses and link-up play with Bamford and he was usually involved in his team’s build up play on the left. Getty
Patrick Bamford 7 – Netted his first goal of the season with a typical striker’s touch. He almost scored at the other end when his attempted clearance header hit the post. Reuters
SUBS: Jamie Shackleton (Llorente 66’) 6 – Saw his shot in the closing stages deflected but will be credited with the assist. Getty
