Burnley and Wolves played out a 1-1 draw at Turf Moor to close out a miserable Premier League campaign for the two sides, who were relegated well in advance of the final day.

In the meeting between the bottom two, Wolves took the lead through Adam Armstrong's penalty but Zian Flemming's 11th goal of the season salvaged a draw for the hosts.

It was an eventful start to the game as Wolves were awarded a penalty when Ladislav Krejci's header struck Florentino's outstretched arm in the box, following a video assistant referee (VAR) review.

Burnley supporters made their displeasure at VAR clear from the stands but Armstrong compounded their misery by sending goalkeeper Max Weiss the wrong way to give the visitors the lead inside five minutes.

Mateus Mane's left-foot curler from the edge of the box was tipped onto the post by Weiss in the 14th minute before Santiago Bueno smashed his shot against his own arm from point-blank range as Wolves probed for a second.

Burnley offered little attacking threat before the break but that changed in the second half as Flemming exchanged passes with Loum Tchaouna before planting a strike into the bottom corner to make it 1-1 only two minutes after the restart.

Florentino then saw his cross evade a sea of bodies in the box and crash against the woodwork while Hannibal Mejbri had an effort slip under Sa before the Wolves keeper recovered just in time to stop the ball crossing the line.

Burnley pushed for a winner with Sa also alert to deny Lucas Pires in the 77th minute but the Clarets failed to find the decisive moment to share the points with Wolves, who will join them in the Championship next season.

The Clarets wrapped up their campaign in 19th with 22 points while Wolves finished two points behind in 20th.

Burnley would not have thought things could get worse after it was confirmed as early as April that they will head straight back to the Championship.

But Wolves threatened to pile on the misery on the final day, taking the lead early through Armstrong to condemn the hosts to the bottom of the 'as it stands' table.

It took Flemming to step up once again as the 27-year-old striker has done so often this season with his 11th goal of the season.

The Clarets finished the season with the worst home record in the top flight this season, only picking up 13 points from 19 matches. They have also now gone 15 games without a win in front of their fans.

While Flemming would hope his impressive goals tally would boost his hopes of making the Netherlands squad for the World Cup this summer, the Clarets will now turn their full attention to appointing a successor to Scott Parker, who left the club last month following their relegation from the Premier League.

Wales manager Craig Bellamy, his former Liverpool team-mate Steven Gerrard and Cardiff City head coach Brian Barry-Murphy have been heavily linked with the vacant position.

But whoever takes charge faces a significant challenge if they are to guide Burnley back to the Premier League.

Wolves had the chance to leapfrog Burnley and avoid the ignominy of finishing rock bottom with a win on the final day.

That would have given their supporters at least something to cheer about at the end of a miserable campaign, before they start preparations for a first season in the Championship since 2017-18.

But after a strong first half where they were the much better side, generating an expected goals (xG) of 1.45, the visitors faded after the break to more resemble the side that have come up short on so many occasions this season.

They managed just one shot on target in the second half and had their goalkeeper Sa to thank for preserving a point, with the goalkeeper producing a string of saves against a resurgent Burnley, who bombarded his goal with 11 shots after the break.

Manager Rob Edwards now has a busy summer as he prepares for a big rebuild. He would have already identified the players he wants to keep for next season but whether he will be able to keep hold of key figures remains to be seen.
