Yet here we are.

BAR!
He has to score!

Ivanovic is playing so well in both boxes, and he looks as likely to score as anyone.
The Baggies are on top and Burnley look a little stunned. Just need a goal.
60'
Lovely stuff from the Baggies as Diangana and Krovinovic knock it about down the right. Bilic gives them a well-deserved clap.
Baggies piling on the pressure.
GREAT SAVES!
CHAOS! What a scramble! Burnley survive! Livermore forces a save off the line from Pope and then Ivanovic does the same moments later. It's pinball football and eventually a goalkick. Ivanovic can't believe it.
58'
Brownhill sends it up and over, Hegazi heads it out.
Pereira launches a counter and finds Krovinovic. Burnley clear their lines with a big hoof but it's faster football from West Brom.
This is what we're here for!
