All Whites striker Chris Wood has scored a dramatic late goal in his Premier League debut for Burnley to snatch a 1-1 draw with Spurs, at Wembley.
Wood made his entrance from the reserves bench in the 57th minute, with Spurs leading 1-nil.
The club’s record signing didn’t take long to make his mark.
He showed great composure to slot a powerful right foot shot past Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in the 92nd minute, to level the scores and earn the Clarets a precious away point.
Wood is delighted to be back on the big stage after his transfer from Leeds United.
“Everybody knows the character at Burnley. The Premier League is a lot different from the Championship," Wood said post-match.
There are more good players who can carve you up. It is nice to be back. It is where my dreams and ambitions lie."
He now heads to the airport in London ... for the long trip to Auckland to captain the All Whites in their World Cup qualifier against the Solomon Islands on Friday night.
