'A day to forget' - Dyche admits favourites tag weighed heavy on Burnley in Lincoln loss

The non-league Imps dealt out a harsh lesson to the Clarets in the FA Cup, with the Turf Moor boss feeling his team struggled to handle expectation

Burnley manager Sean Dyche felt his side failed to deal with the unfamiliar situation of being favourites as Lincoln City dumped them out of the FA Cup.

Sean Raggett's 89th-minute header ensured the National League leaders became the first non-league team to reach the quarter-finals of the competition since 1914.

Dyche felt Burnley lacked quality in attack on a frustrating and, ultimately, humiliating afternoon at Turf Moor, with the Clarets beaten on their home ground for the first time in nine matches.
