Burnley boss Dyche: We deserved something from Liverpool clash

Burnley boss Sean Dyche thinks his side didn't deserve to come out empty handed from their game against Liverpool on Sunday.

Ashley Barnes struck early for the Clarets, but goals from Georginio Wijnaldum and Emre Can ensured another three points for Jurgen Klopp's side.

"It's a tough one to take," Dyche told Sky Sports.

"We came here with a good game plan and a firm mentality and scored a sublime goal, but then they scored with their first shot on target. They got a bit lucky with the bounce off Ben Mee and it lands to [Wijnaldum].

"We maintained a good standard in the second half, then they got a soft goal from distance by our standards, but we responded well and created one or two really good chances late on and limited them to very few.

"I said before the game that possession doesn't win games and goals do, but unfortunately we were on the wrong side of it and maybe a little bit unjustly. We deserved something from the game with the performance."
