What happened. West Ham led 2-0 until the 72nd minute, but Burnley's Zian Flemming scored twice to earn a draw.

• Kilman headed in from Bowen's corner in the 10th minute.
• Solomon scored on debut after Kante's low cross.
• Flemming caused problems all afternoon, hitting the post and having a header cleared off the line.

“It's disappointing. We had a very good first half and when we scored the second goal we should have done better to get the result.”

— Nuno Espirito Santo

West Ham dropped points from a winning position again, a concern after last season's 20-point drop.
