Drama unfolds at Turf Moor as Trafford saves two late Isidor pens...
There was controversy about both decisions. The first saw Isidor go down after being clipped by CJ Egan-Riley, although it appeared the challenge happened outside the box. But Trafford got down to his right to keep out Isidor.
The second saw substitute Oliver Sonne bring down Dennis Cirkin deep in added time. Isidor stepped up again and again Trafford kept him out with a big hand as the striker tried to go down the same side.
Some questions will be asked of the referee allowing the Burnley goalkeeper to delay the game for over two minutes twice. "The first one my laces were undone, the second one my hammy is crying," Trafford told Sky Sports after the game.
He did well to keep a straight face, and the mindgames clearly worked.
It will feel like a win for Burnley, but in the end a draw means they fail to go above Leeds at the top of the Championship table. They did, however, move level on points with leaders Leeds.

James Trafford on Sky Sports Football:
"I just had to get CJ [Egan-Riley] out of trouble. I got him out of trouble and then he made a great block. It's what we do. We've done it since we were 12.
"That's what you remember because it happened late on but we had the better chances. If you take the two penalties out of it, then the way we played, in my opinion, we should've won.
"It probably feels like a win in the long-term. It's a nice feeling isn't it?"
