Burnley boss Vincent Kompany was left delighted with their 1-1 draw at Manchester United.

Antony had United 1-0 ahead before Andre Onana gave away a penalty, which was converted by Zeki Amdouni.

Kompany said: "That is football. We are where we are for a reason. If we are clinical in all moments we'd be well clear of the relegation zone. Our attitude was impeccable and the sacrifice for the team was impeccable too. Old Trafford is always a tough place to go to, we'll take the positives and hopefully keep the momentum ahead of two games at Turf Moor."

On Zeki Amdouni's perfect penalty record, he said: "Don't jinx it! I won't be saying anything else about that. He is a goalscorer. Hidden in the inexperience of our squad are some really, really good talents. It's not a coincidence he scored that goal. He's an outstanding talent."

On Dara O'Shea, Kompany added: "There are too many to pick out. For us it is not just about his defending and on the ball, it is about his leadership. We don't have a lot of experience but he's stood up and that has been important for us.

"If I was die tomorrow you could put 'we keep going' on my headstone. There is tremendous consistency in the club and the approach to each game, even in tough times. We've earned the right to believe and hope."
