Burnley reserves coach Steve Davis was happy to give Joe McKee his chance this week.
The 16 year-old Scot, a summer signing from Livingston, scored in the 2-1 win over Bolton Wanderers.
McKee told the Lancashire Telegraph: "He's come into the reserves and he's done really well.
"He's still a young lad and he looks comfortable at this standard of football, which is always a good thing for a young lad."
