Mee winner at Palace fires Burnley into eighth

Burnley captain Ben Mee marked his 300th appearance for the club by scoring in a 1-0 win at Crystal Palace on Monday as the Clarets climbed to eighth in the Premier League table. Victory saw Sean Dyche's visitors go level on points with Tottenham Hotspur and keep alive their hopes of European football next season. A week on from saying how "ashamed" he was at a plane carrying the message 'White lives Matter Burnley' over the Etihad Stadium during a 5-0 thrashing by Manchester City, the defender won plaudits for his football at Selhurst Park as the Clarets built on a 1-0 win over Watford.
