Jack Cork scored an extra-time goal as Burnley beat Istanbul Basaksehir 1-0 to advance to a Europa League playoff with Olympiakos.

The teams came into match level at 0-0 on aggregate after the first leg in Istanbul, and after 90 minutes of regular time that score was still the same.

But Cork popped up in the 97th minute to fire in the winner in a match that saw Joe Hart have a superb night in goal in his Turf Moor debut for Burnley.

Sean Dyche's team will travel to Greece next Thursday for the first leg of the playoff with Olympiakos looking to make it into the group stage.
