Leeds United must better Burnley’s result on the last day of the season to remain a Premier League football club. A poor night for Whites fans saw the Clarets snatch a point against Aston Villa and Everton complete a dramatic comeback victory against Crystal Palace.
However, the situation could have looked worse as Burnley were leading at Villa Park via an Ashley Barnes penalty. Emil Buendia’s strike after the break levelled the scoreline and Villa would have won if it were not for an inspired Nick Pope display between the sticks.
On Merseyside, Frank Lampard secured the Toffees’ top-flight status despite trailing 2-0 at half-time. Goals from Michael Keane, Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin clinched the points at Goodison Park - meaning the relegation battle is now a shoot-out between Leeds and Burnley.
