CHARLIE Austin's 75th-minute penalty gave Burnley victory at Championship bottom club Doncaster Rovers and ensured that the Clarets took maximum points over Easter.
Austin scored the winner in Burnley's 1-0 home victory against Brighton on Good Friday and he netted from the spot at the Keepmoat Stadium this afternoon after Danny Ings had been fouled in the box.
Josh McQuoid had put the Clarets ahead with a half volley from 25 yards in the 36th minute, but Doncaster levelled 11 minutes after the interval when Chris Brown headed home.
Burnley: Lee Grant, Kieran Trippier, Michael Duff, David Edgar, Ross Wallace, Josh McQuoid, Dean Marney, Chris McCann, Junior Stanislas (Shay McCartan 89), Danny Ings, Charlie Austin. Subs not used: Brian Jensen, Daniel Laffery, Cameron Howieson, Steven Hewitt.
