Boss Ange Postecoglou is still waiting for his first Nottingham Forest win after Oleksandr Zinchenko’s error earned Burnley a draw at Turf Moor.
The Arsenal loanee bundled the ball into his own net from Jaidon Anthony’s cross, although the Burnley player was awarded the goal, after Neco Williams’ thumping early finish gave Forest the lead.
Postecoglou has made an immediate impact on the way Forest play – they are much more expansive than under predecessor Nuno Espirito Santo – but the head coach is still impressing his ideas to his new squad after a winless opening three games.
Forest were the better side in the first half – leading after Williams’ second-minute thunderbolt – but still could have gone in behind after Burnley clawed they way back following Zinchenko’s gaffe.
The defender turned Jaidon Anthony’s scuffed shot, which may have crept into the opposite corner, over the line as he fell into the goal.
Dilane Bakwa and Chris Wood went close for the visitors but Loum Tchaouna’s free-kick rattled the bar just before the break.
Burnley winger Jaidon Anthony forced Matz Sels into an early second-half save but, despite failing to win, it is another point Burnley can build on after their late heartbreak against Liverpool last week.
The Clarets, though, needed Martin Dubravka to keep out Igor Jesus’ header and Williams’ late drive to earn their point.
