David Nugent's equaliser earned Burnley a 1-1 draw with Stoke in the Premier League on Wednesday night.
Tuncay Sanli had put the Potters ahead from a Rory Delap long throw in the first half.
But Nugent headed home seven minutes after the interval after Martin Paterson turned Danny Collins inside out before delivering a superb cross from deep.
The goal gave the Clarets another precious point in their battle against relegation, although they remain in the drop zone for now.
They climb above Hull, but remain just behind Wolves on goal difference. Stoke meanwhile stay 11th.
Stoke manager Tony Pulis could afford a wry smile after Burnley's attempts to curb the threat of Delap's long throws came unstuck.
The Clarets moved the advertising hoardings closer to the pitch at Turf Moor in the hope of taking the edge off the midfielder's missiles.
Pulis said: "We noticed what they had done as soon as we came out. We get on with it, it is their club, it's their ground.
"They have to do what they have to do. You take it and get on with it. I don't care where a goal comes from. It is always satisfying scoring.
"Because he was a javelin thrower as well, Rory has that technique obviously down to a treat."
Burnley manager Brian Laws has seen his side win only once in nine league games since replacing Owen Coyle but is convinced they can get out of trouble.
He said: "Everyone expects Burnley not to be in the Premier League next year but we believe it. We have goals in us. We just have to keep it tight at the back.
"I will take a lot of things out of the game particularly the second half performance. They bullied us in the first half.
