Burnley vs Cardiff City 2-0 ● Short Highlights HD ● All Goals 2019

Chris Wood scored both goals as Burnley secured a crucial Premier League victory over Cardiff City.

Burnley took another giant stride towards Premier League survival as Chris Wood's brace sealed a hard-earned 2-0 win over Cardiff City at Turf Moor on Saturday.

New Zealand international Wood added a stoppage-time tap-in to his first-half header as Sean Dyche's side moved 11 points clear of the 18th-placed Bluebirds.

Cardiff, frustrated by unfavourable refereeing decisions in last month's loss to Chelsea, will feel aggrieved after having multiple penalty appeals turned down.

The most contentious decision was match official Mike Dean's reversal of a spot-kick for handball against Ben Mee that left Neil Warnock incredulous and his team closer to the drop.

Wood issued an early warning when he nodded against the upright following Dwight McNeil's free-kick in the second minute.

The visitors failed to heed the lesson, letting the striker go untracked as he headed home winger McNeil's inswinging corner in the 31st minute.
