Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton put in a Man-of-the-Match performance as he captained his side to a battling 0-0 draw at the home of his former club Manchester United, on Saturday afternoon.
Speaking toBBCin the aftermath of the game,Heaton admitted that one shot from 'out-of-form' United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic - one of twelve attempts by the Swede - nearly broke his arm.

"I knew I had two men behind me on the line so I thought I'd try and get out, close the space and spread," Heaton said of his wonder-save.
"Thankfully it hit me but it nearly broke my arm. We came with a game plan, put in an incredible shift and hung in there.
"Much has been made of our away form but what a place to come and get our first point," the former United stopper, released by Sir Alex Ferguson noted.
Heaton's former side had 37 shots on his goal, forcing the England man into 11 saves, to keep Jose Mourinho's frustrated side at bay.
37 - Manchester United's total of 37 shots is their most in a Premier League game since 2003/04 (Opta records began). Frustration.
United, who now have just one win in their last seven league matches, peppered the Burnley goal, but much like in their previous home league match against Stoke, ran into a goalkeeper in inspired form and also took many shots from speculative positions.
Even after tireless midfielder Ander Herrera was sent off for a second bookable offence - the Spaniard will be a big miss in coming matches due to his impressive recent form - United swarmed forwards, but found Heaton and his stubborn defence a tough nut to crack.
Jose Mourinho was sent to the stands for his protests about referee Mark Clattenberg's failure to award his side a spot-kick, and saw an out-of-sorts Ibrahimovic fail to convert a host of chances, to further extend his wait for a league goal.
