English-born of Ghanaian descent Brandon Thomas-Asante climbed off the bench to register his debut goal to rescue West Bromwich Albion from a defeat to Burnley in the English Championship on Friday evening
West Bromwich Albion left it late as debutant Brandon Thomas-Asante came off the bench to scramble in a 98th-minute equaliser against Burnley.
Former Albion striker Jay Rodriguez looked to have made a winning return to The Hawthorns when he scored from the penalty spot in the first half.
Rodriguez coolly slotted home the spot kick after Albion goalkeeper David Button brought down Nathan Tella when clean through.
On a night when Steve Bruce's Baggies twice hit the woodwork and had no luck in front of goal, Burnley substitute Darko Churlinov could have settled it, only to hit the post himself.
Just when Vincent Kompany's Clarets looked set to go top of the Championship, Thomas-Asante, a midweek signing from Salford City, brought the house down with his close-range finish.
