Scott Parker's immediate reaction to Burnley's draw against Hull City as unbeaten run continues
Scott Parker was left with mixed feelings after his Burnley side battled back from behind to draw with Hull City and extend their unbeaten run.
The Clarets were well off the pace during an underwhelming first-half at the MKM Stadium, where they fell behind to Xavier Simons’ deflected strike.
The visitors were much improved in the second period though and got back on level terms 13 minutes from time when Zian Flemming headed them level with his first goal for the club.
The man that set up that goal, Jaidon Anthony, then ought to have won it at the death when he somehow failed to find the back of the net from just a couple of yards out.
While Parker was frustrated not to win it at the death, he was delighted with the response his players showed after going behind, with the first goal they’ve conceded in seven and a half hours.
“I’m a little bit disappointed, especially at the end because it’s obviously a massive chance,” Parker said. “It looks like it’s a stonewall goal, didn’t it? But Jaidon slipped and he’s not managed to get the three points over the line.
“Analysing the game, I thought we started the game really well but my feeling is we got to the edge of their box really well and the details [just weren’t there]. There was a real sloppiness with that final bit.


“We had a lot of turnovers and some of our basics let us down, which can happen. I don’t think there was much detail about it, there were just some poor bits.
“Saying that, I was absolutely delighted with them in the second-half. This is a team that hasn’t conceded a goal in four games and a number of hours, so what reaction are we going to see? Is there going to be vast disappointment and are we going to be a team that doesn’t react in the right way?
“But the second-half proved every bit of what I want us to be. There was a relentlessness about us and we kept going.
“It’s eight unbeaten now. It’s a tough place to come and we managed to give ourselves an uphill battle but we’ve managed to get out of here with a point.”
