Derby County 2 - Burnley 4
CHRIS McCANN put 15 months of injury agony behind him as Burnley boosted their promotion hopes.
The midfi elder returned to put the gloss on a stunning Clarets comeback that brought Eddie Howe’s men level with sixth-placed Nottingham Forest.
McCann’s stunning 74th-minute 20-yarder went in via the post.
Theo Robinson had tapped Derby ahead after just six minutes.
Chris Eagles levelled with a smart finish before Jamie Ward’s deflected shot restored the Rams’ lead.
Ward was then sent off after bringing down Tyrone Mears for a 62nd-minute spot-kick.
Eagles scored at the second attempt after Brad Jones had saved.
