His team were dreadful and had striker Oli McBurnie sent off for two elbows when the score was 2-0.<\/p>\n<p>After losing their first seven home matches \u2013 an unwanted top-flight-record &#8211; Burnley got the quick start they wanted.<\/p>\n<p>Rodriguez stooped to beat Auston Trusty and head in before any Blades player had taken a meaningful touch from kick off. The goal was officially timed at 15.80 seconds, making it the 15th quickest in Premier League history and the fastest since Philip Billing scored for Bournemouth v Arsenal in March.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/16\/78504133-12817771-image-a-33_1701535521357.jpg\" height=\"418\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Burnley won their first home tie of the season after beating fellow promoted side Sheffield Utd<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/17\/78504483-12817771-image-m-48_1701536705053.jpg\" height=\"435\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pressure now shifts to Paul Heckingbottom as his side settles second-to-last in the table<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/02\/17\/78504491-12817771-image-a-49_1701536728902.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>10-man Sheffield United&#8217;s capitulation on the road gives the Blades a mountain to climb<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>The 34-year-old forward also has another early-bird strike in the list \u2013 for Southampton against Chelsea a decade ago.<\/p>\n<h3>BURNLEY 5-0 SHEFFIELD UNITED: Match facts\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>Burnley (4-4-2):<span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Trafford 6.5, Vitinha 6, O\u2019Shea 7.5 (Ekdal 83), Beyer 7.5, Taylor 7, Larsen 7 (Gudmundsson 65 6), Berge 6.5, Brownhill 7.5, Koleosho 8.5 (Tresor 77), Rodriguez 8 (Obafemi 77), Amdouni 7 (Redmond 77)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Subs unused: <\/span>Vigouroux (GK), Ekdal, Ramsey, Massengo, Odobert\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Goal: <\/span>Rodriguez (1&#8242;), Larsen (29&#8242;), Amdouni (73&#8242;), Koleosho (75&#8242;), Brownhill (80&#8242;)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Booked: <\/span>O\u2019Shea, Beyer<\/p>\n<p><span>Sheff Utd (3-5-2):<\/span>\u00a0Fotheringham 6, Ahmedhodzic 5.5, Robinson 5, Trusty 5.5, Baldock 6 (Bogle 25 5), Hamer 6, Fleck 5 (Osula 45 6), Norwood 6.5, Thomas 4.5 (McAtee 45 5.5), Archer 5 (Traore 45 5.5), McBurnie 4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Subs unused:<\/span>\u00a0Davies (GK), Lowe, Souza, Slimane, Larouci\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Booked:<\/span> Fleck, McBurnie, Thomas, Osula, Ahmedhodzic\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>Sent off: <\/span>McBurnie<\/p>\n<p><span>Referee: <\/span>Chris Kavanagh 6<\/p>\n<p>Rodriguez had grabbed the opener against West Ham the previous weekend only for the Clarets to throw away the points in the closing stages.<\/p>\n<p>Kompany knew he needed a second goal and his nerves were jangling when United\u2019s Oliver Norwood hit a cracking half-volley that forced James Trafford to dive right and parry away.<\/p>\n<p>The Blades had to make a change when George Baldock was replaced by Jayden Bogle after 25 minutes and Burnley scored the important second just before the half-hour.<\/p>\n<p>Dara O\u2019Shea pinged a 50-yard pass towards Larsen whose exquisite first touch took him clear of Luke Thomas and then finished low past Wes Foderingham for his second.<\/p>\n<p>It was the Dane\u2019s first home goal for the club he joined last summer and United lost their heads as a result.<\/p>\n<p>John Fleck went into the book for clattering into Josh Brownhill and McBurnie joined him for catching him in the face as he tried to lever him out of the way as they challenged in the air.<\/p>\n<p>That offence alone could have been red on its own.
