Burnley battled into the third qualifying round of the Europa League with a 4-2 aggregate victory over Aberdeen after a gripping 3-1 second-leg extra-time win.

With the scores level at 1-1 after the first leg, Chris Wood's early strike put Burnley ahead at Turf Moor.

But 18-year-old Lewis Ferguson drew Aberdeen level with a superb overhead kick in the 27th minute.

Joe Lewis made two fantastic saves to deny Ashley Barnes and Sam Vokes in the second half, while Burnley's third-choice goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard - starting his first competitive match since October 2016 - saved from Graeme Shinnie.

But the Premier League side grabbed victory in extra-time as Jack Cork headed home in the 101st minute and then Ashley Barnes converted from the penalty spot after a handball.

Burnley will next face Turkish side Istanbul Basaksehir, with the first leg in Istanbul on August 9 - just a few days before the start of the Premier League season - and the winner of the tie advancing to the play-off round.

Dyche pleased to win 'tricky tie'

McInnes: Europa defeat was harsh

Playing their first home European game in 51 years, the Clarets were given a stern test by Aberdeen before emerging as hard-fought winners.

Burnley started positively enough and took the lead in the sixth minute when Ashley Westwood chipped over the top and Wood showed good composure to finish after evading a diving challenge from Aberdeen goalkeeper Lewis.

But the Clarets could not further their advantage and Aberdeen grew into the game.

The visitors were given a huge lift in the 27th minute when Ferguson finished with a superb overhead kick from 12 yards out.

The goal was Ferguson's first in senior football and sparked Aberdeen into life. They twice went close before the break as Andrew Considine headed wide and then Graeme Shinnie forced Anders Lindegaard into a sharp fingertip save.

But Burnley improved after the break and Lewis saved well from Johann Berg Gudmundsson.

Better was to follow from the Aberdeen goalkeeper as he made a fantastic stop to keep out a fierce strike from Barnes and then tipped a header from Sam Vokes onto the underside of the bar.

Lindegaard was also called into action at the end to keep out an effort from Shinnie at the near post.

There was nothing between the teams in the closing stages, but Burnley scored twice in extra-time to secure their progress.

First, Cork headed in from substitute Charlie Taylor's cross, before Barnes converted a penalty after Scott Mckenna was penalised for handball.

Man of the match - Joe Lewis

He might have ended up on the losing side, but Aberdeen goalkeeper Lewis made two superb saves in the second half to keep Burnley at bay.

The former England Under-21 reacted sharply to turn away a powerful shot from Barnes and then got the slightest of touches on Vokes' header to tip it onto the bar.
