Burnley striker Chris Wood hailed Dwight McNeil's wonder goal after victory at Everton.

McNeil produced a brilliant effort – curled into the top corner after slaloming his way into position – which helped secure the Clarets' first win since their triumph at Crystal Palace.

“It was very special," said Wood, who struck to set Burnley on their way to a 2-1 win at Goodison Park.

“He's an extraordinary talent. He's got that in abundance and pulls it out the bag when needed.

“What a strike and he'll run Lowts close for goal of the season so far, I reckon."
