Burnley goalscorer Gudmundsson proud of Man City point

Johann Berg Gudmundsson was delighted with his goal in Burnley's 1-1 draw with Manchester City.

Defender Danilo gave Pep Guardiola's side the lead with a fine 20-yard effort on 22 minutes.

Raheem Sterling, though, missed from close range and Burnley responded to secure a point when Gudmundsson equalised with eight minutes left.

“It was a great ball from Lowts. It was a tough finish because it just bounced in front of me and the keeper got a hand to it," said Gudmundsson after doubling his tally for the season.

“He was on great form today and made some really good saves, so I was just happy to see it hit the back of the net.

“We created some good chances and made their keeper work.

“In the first half from Ben he made a good save and so it's a credit to us that we made chances against a great team like Manchester City.

“I just want to get in the box and score some goals. That's two in the last five (league) games and I just want to keep the run going."
