Kevin McDonald had the last word in an amazing 3-3 thriller which brought Burnley their first away point of the season and condemned Manchester City to a fifth successive draw.
Graham Alexander's penalty and a Steven Fletcher tap-in seemed to have Burnley well placed for their first top-flight away win since April 1976.
But Shaun Wright-Phillips breathed fresh life into the home side two minutes before half-time with a neat drive and Kolo Toure and Craig Bellamy seemed to have set the stage for a City win in 15 raucous minutes either side of the break.
However, after spending almost all the second period on the back foot, Burnley found a final burst of energy three minutes from time.
Substitute David Nugent crossed for Fletcher, whose nod back invited McDonald's gleeful finish and drew boos of derision from City fans at the end as their team slipped out of the top four.

The owners of Manchester City, the richest unreal estate managers in the World, cannot afford to lose the pride of buying Wastelands - So are ManCite the highest paid rent boys in football?
Come off it, City did really well to get a point, Burnley beat the World Champions.
Remember City have only spent nearly 400 million, hardly enough yet!!!
I think Mark Hughes should buy all the players some pencils and paper, they are very good at drawing.
Remember I really am jealous of City, and secretly admire them!!!
As always City FC NK and their followers give the rest of us a good laugh, please keep it up, it is so boring to see Arsenal, United, Chelsea, Aston Villa etc win matchs all the time.
city r @#$%e....official. bunch of f*ggots.
