Burnley and Norwich's wait for a first Premier League win of the season goes on after the two sides played out a goalless draw at Turf Moor.
The 43 previous meetings between these two sides had never ended goalless and this one should not have done either after both sides had good opportunities to snatch a goal in a lively encounter.
Dwight McNeil had a golden chance to score for Burnley midway through the second half when he was picked out unmarked at the far post but could only cushion his shot over, while Matt Lowton headed just over late on.
Norwich, without a goal in all four of their away games so far this season, had two good chances in the second half when Mathias Normann's free-kick from just outside the box was pushed away by a diving Nick Pope, before Normann grazed the top of the crossbar with a strong strike after clever footwork to get into the box.
A feisty first half featured five yellow cards shown by referee Kevin Friend, who also waved away a number of Burnley appeals for penalties.
For Norwich, the point has at least got them off the mark this season after losing all six of their previous games but they remain bottom of the table.
Burnley, meanwhile, are two places and two points above the Canaries.
