BURNLEY, England (Reuters) - Premier League leaders Manchester City paid the price for missed chances as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Burnley on Saturday with Johann Berg Gudmundsson’s 82nd minute equaliser earning the hosts a share of the points. Raheem Sterling produced one of the misses of the season – somehow putting the ball wide just one metre out from the empty goal and Burnley made the most of that let-off. City extended their lead to 16 points over second-placed rivals Manchester United, who were hosting Huddesfield Town later on Saturday. In an attacking line-up, Burnley boss Sean Dyche gave winger Aaron Lennon his first start since joining from Everton. Former City youth team player Mee had another half-chance minutes later but his header from a corner flashed just wide.
