Burnley’s already slim survival hopes now appear to have all but vanished following a disheartening 1-0 defeat to Everton.

Vincent Kompany’s men knew they realistically had to win this six-pointer at Goodison Park if they were to stand any chance of fulling off a survival miracle.

But Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s freak goal, a direct result of Arijanet Muric’s mistake, decided this game in favour of Sean Dyche’s side.

Matters then went from bad to worse in the second-half when Dara O’Shea was shown a straight red.

Here’s how Burnley’s players rated:

Caused problems with some driving runs through the centre of the pitch, but Everton clearly targeted him as a threat, constantly hacking him down.

9. Wilson Odobert - 6/10

Caused some problems during the first-half coming in from the right flank, but chances were few and far between.

More involved than he was against Wolves, having a header well saved by Jordan Pickford. But taken off on the hour mark.

11. David Fofana - 6/10

For Fofana, 61Didn’t particularly make an impact on the game either way. The change allowed Foster to move centrally but that didn't make a huge difference either.

12. SUB: Vitinho - 6/10
