Berahino's penalty heartbreak

Saido Berahino missed the chance to rescue a draw for Stoke with a late penalty miss against Blackburn.

The Burundi international recently ended a goal drought of 913 days when he scored against Huddersfield in the Potters' 2-0 Carabao Cup triumph over Huddersfield and he was on the scoresheet against Rovers, bundling home from close range with 11 minutes to play.

His goal reduced the three-goal advantage Tony Mowbray's men boasted and just seconds later Tom Ince tapped home to set up a nervy finish at the bet365 Stadium.

And when Berahino was brought down by Darragh Lenihan inside the area, he was awarded a spot-kick. But in the most dramatic finale of the afternoon, the 25-year-old was left gutted as he thumped his effort onto the crossbar to deny Gary Rowett's men a much-needed share of the spoils.
