BURNLEY SCORED five goals in a stunning first-half performance as they hammered relegation-threatened Plymouth 5-0 at Home Park to continue their promotion charge in the Championship .
Lyle Foster had the first Clarets attempt, heading tamely towards goal from a Connor Roberts sixth-minute cross that was safely gathered by home keeper Dan Grimshaw. The Argyle keeper had to have his wits about him clearing a Burnley free-kick as it was headed goalwards by Maxime Esteve in the 15th minute, causing a goalmouth scramble.
Flemming soon had his second, after a quickly taken free-kick by Brownhill just inside the Argyle half. Laurent got his second and Burnley’s fourth, heading home on the line as another Anthony cross was knocked back across the face of goal by Foster to the far post.
