‘Jeff Hendrick wanted to take it’ – Burnley’s Joey Barton on his match-winning free-kick

JOEY Barton fancied taking the free-kick that led to Burnley’s winner against Southampton due to the position it was in rather than any sense of destiny. The 34-year-old, making his second Turf Moor ‘debut’ after returning to the club following an ill-fated spell in Scotland with Rangers, found the back of the net with the 25-yard free-kick, via a slight deflection.
