Burnley keeper Heaton: No blame for Ings over late poster

Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton insists no-one blames Danny Ings after hitting the post at 1-1 for their point against Aston Villa.

Heaton insisted England under-21 star Ings had nothing to be sorry about after hitting a post when another goal would have lifted Burnley out of the drop zone.

He said: "To be fair to Ingsy the chance is all his own making with great feet. It's actually a great finish and just a bit unlucky it doesn't slide in off the post.

"I think his penalty was under a bit of pressure and he took it really well.

"He looked really sharp so I don't think he's got a lot to be down about."
