PL: Callum Wilson brace relegates Burnley

Burnley’s six-season stay in the Premier League came to an end as Newcastle’s 2-1 victory at Turf Moor condemned the Clarets to relegation and Championship football next season.

A win for Burnley would have confirmed their top-flight status at the expense of Leeds United, irrespective of their final-day result at Brentford, but a catastrophic start left the Clarets with too much ground to make up.

Maxwel Cornet halved the deficit nine minutes later and, as news of a Brentford equaliser against Leeds filtered through, belief grew that Burnley could find the priceless equalising goal needed to avoid the drop.

Wout Weghorst, Jack Cork and Cornet had efforts to the Burnley saviour but to no avail, and their relegation was confirmed in stoppage-time by the news Leeds United had found a stoppage-time winner at Brentford.
