Ebou Adams and Joe Ward of Derby County celebrate their team's first goal scored by teammate Bobby Clark during the Carabao Cup Second Round match between Burnley and Derby County at Turf Moor
Derby County's journey in the Carabao Cup was halted by Burnley as
had fallen behind after five minutes as Aaron Ramsey gave the hosts the lead before Bobby Clark levelled with a super finish.
But Sonne wrapped up the win in stoppage time when he
It took just five minutes for Burnley to open the scoring as the Clarets went through the gears in what was a rapid counter attack.
The move ended with Armando Broja poking a ball into the path of Aaron Ramsey who lashed in a super finish that while Josh Vickers did well to get a hand to, just couldn't keep it out.
It seemed at that stage that Derby were going into be in for a long night particularly with Loum Tchaouna, a £12m signing from Lazio, looking a threat with his speed and direct running.
But gradually began to make their presence felt as Joe Ward flashed a shot wide of the target before Derby drew level with a goal of real quality.
The impressive Rhian Brewster set the ball rolling with a lovely cushioned pass from which Callum Elder did not have to break stride. He immediately fed the ball into the path of Bobby Clark whose first touch took him past a desperate lunge from ex-Nottingham Forest defender Joe Worrall, before he crashed in a super finish.
It was a wonderful goal, but they were thankful for Josh Vickers who made an important stop to thwart Zian Flemming's header which he pushed away from danger.
With both sides hoping to avoid penalties, Tchaouna came close to adding a second for Burnley when his shot hit the foot of the post and came back out.
Jaydon Banel had an effort that Vickers saved before Matt Clarke headed over at the other end as both sides looked for a winner.
Josh Vickers: Could do very little with Aaron Ramsey's opener because it was an excellent finish but he pulled off an instinctive stop to thwart Zian Flemming after Bobby Clark had levelled. 6
Jake Rooney: Looked like it was going to be a long night on his return to Turf Moor but grew into the game and looked really calm and assured in everything he did. 7
Dion Sanderson: Caught the eye with some of his long-range passing and defensively it was a strong performance. Was desperately unlucky with Burnley's winner. Showed why John Eustace has signed him on more than one occasion. 8
Craig Forsyth: The long-serving Scot was a calming influence in the heart of the defence and his experience, of which he has plenty, means he never ever looks flustered. 6
Joe Ward: There was one moment in the first half when he enjoyed some excellent link-up play with Rhian Brewster but he just needed a better final ball. Worked hard. 6.5
Ben Osborn: Did an unselfish job in the heart of midfield as he made the ball work for him and just kept the play ticking over when he could. A steady performance from the midfielder. 6
Ebou Adams: Charged around midfield with the usual energy and bluster but sometimes that enthusiasm led to him giving a couple of free-kicks away. But he got stuck in. 6
Bobby Clark: Showed what he was about when you get him in a central position as he provided attacking support beyond the striker. Great first touch and the second was even better. Great goal. 7
Callum Elder: Had a slow start to the game, but really started to influence it when he could get forward. Teed up Bobby Clark's goal and provided a couple of decent crosses. Had to go off at half-time. 5
Rhian Brewster: The summer signing still isn't quite up to full fitness, but this was a tasty demonstration of what he will provide. Great pass in the build-up to the equaliser. Wasn't afraid to tackle either. 7.5
Kayden Jackson: A hard night for the striker whose determination to try and make things happen could not be faulted, but no chances came his way. 5
Subs
Matt Clarke (Elder 45): Had a header over the bar 10 minutes from time. 6
Dajaune Brown (Clark 62): Had to lead the line and it was good experience for him against a Premier League defence. 5
Liam Thompson (Osborn 62): Ratted around midfield and was happy to collect the ball as and when required. 5
Andi Weimann (Brewster 62): Played in a central role and tried to offer support to the frontline. 5
Kane Wilson (Ward 70): Nice to see him back after a long layoff. 5
