AFC Bournemouth 5 - 0 Nottingham Forest Bournemouth delivered a scintillating performance to extend their club-record unbeaten Premier League run to 11 games, dismantling high-flying Nottingham Forest 5-0 at the Vitality Stadium. Author - Katrine Jonnson  Stadium - Vitality Stadium Fresh from a stunning 4-1 victory over Newcastle United, the Cherries showed no signs of slowing down under Andoni Iraola, with Dango Ouattara stealing the show with a brilliant hat-trick. Forest, enjoying an impressive season in third place, were left shell-shocked as Bournemouth tore through their usually solid defence. Justin Kluivert set the tone early, scoring his 11th league goal in the ninth minute with a 25-yard strike after Forest’s defenders backed off. Any hopes of a Forest comeback were dashed in the second half when Bournemouth hit top gear. Ouattara headed in Kluivert’s pinpoint cross in the 55th minute and doubled his tally with a clinical finish six minutes later. The Cherries sh...

Bournemouth 1-1 West Ham United Enes Unal’s breathtaking free-kick salvaged a deserved 1-1 draw for Bournemouth against West Ham, after Lucas Paquetá’s controversial penalty—awarded by VAR—put the visitors ahead. Author - Jamie P Unal stepped up from nearly 30 yards out to unleash a powerful strike that left Lukasz Fabianski rooted to the spot, bringing relief to the home crowd following a contentious handball decision that had moments earlier gone against the Cherries. Bournemouth had piled on the pressure since the break, firing off 17 shots in total, but looked to be heading for frustration as West Ham’s resolute defence held firm. Then came a stroke of fortune for the Hammers, who broke the deadlock via a contentious penalty decision. Nicklas Füllkrug’s header was comfortably saved by Kepa Arrizabalaga, but VAR official Michael Salisbury spotted a potential handball by Tyler Adams from Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s cross. After a lengthy review and a trip to the pitch-side monitor by ref...

Bournemouth  1 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur Bournemouth climbed above Tottenham in the Premier League table after defender Dean Huijsen's solitary goal secured victory at the Vitality Stadium. Author - Greg S Huijsen capitalised on poor marking to nod in Marcus Tavernier's inswinging corner at the back post after just 17 minutes. Huijsen’s goal highlighted Spurs' ongoing struggles with set-pieces, leaving manager Ange Postecoglou shaking his head in frustration on the touchline. Tottenham had started brightly, with Dominic Solanke making his mark on his return to Bournemouth following a £65m summer move. However, the former Cherries striker, greeted with scattered boos from the home fans, saw two early efforts fail to make an impact. After Huijsen’s opener, Spurs struggled to regain control, while Bournemouth came close to doubling their lead through Tavernier and Evanilson before half-time. Postecoglou brought on captain Son Heung-min for Pape Matar Sarr after the break, spa...

Bournemouth 2 - 0 Leicester City Bournemouth signed off their Premier League campaign with a comfortable victory over already relegated Leicester City, thanks to a second-half brace from Antoine Semenyo. Author  |   Peter Grainger Stadium  |   Vitality Stadium The forward broke the deadlock in the 75th minute, turning in from close range after Illia Zabarnyi had steered a corner across goal. He doubled the lead late on with a crisp finish from the edge of the box, drilling the ball inside the near post to confirm the win. Andoni Iraola’s side, who fell short in their push for European football following a dip in form during the run-in, dominated for long periods.

There was a false dawn for the visitors in the first half when Oliver Skipp tucked away a Kasey McAteer cross, only for the goal to be chalked off for offside earlier in the mov...

Author - Ajay Stadium - Vitality Stadium Watkins’ composed finish, delicately steering Morgan Rogers’ low cross into the far corner, was his 75th league goal for Villa, nudging him past Gabby Agbonlahor to claim the record outright. The result guarantees Villa a top-seven finish and European football next season, at the very least in the form of a UEFA Conference League spot.

Nottingham Forest 7 - 0 Brighton & Hove Albion Chris Wood hit a hat-trick as a ruthless Nottingham Forest scored seven against a woeful Brighton. Author - Kieran M Stadium - City Ground Forest corner against Brighton Nottingham Forest responded in emphatic fashion to last weekend’s humbling at Bournemouth, putting Brighton to the sword in a stunning 7-0 demolition at the City Ground. Nuno Espírito Santo’s side had seen their unbeaten run halted in brutal fashion at the Vitality Stadium, but they bounced back in the best possible way, recording their biggest-ever Premier League victory against a Brighton side that simply had no answer. Forest’s intent was clear from the off, and they were gifted an early lead when Lewis Dunk inadvertently diverted Morgan Gibbs-White’s low cross into his own net with just 12 minutes played . Gibbs-White then turned scorer, glancing a header into the far corner from Anthony Elanga’s pinpoint delivery, before Chris Wood made it 3-0 on the half-...

Bournemouth 1 - 1 Manchester United  Rasmus Højlund struck deep into injury time to salvage a point for Manchester United, as 10-man Bournemouth suffered a setback in their bid for European football. Author - Olivia T Stadium - Vitality Stadium  Andoni Iraola’s side had been on course for victory after Antoine Semenyo’s 11th goal of the season midway through the first half. The match swung on a contentious decision midway through the second half when Evanilson’s challenge on Noussair Mazraoui, initially deemed worthy of a yellow card, was upgraded to red following a VAR review. The Brazilian appeared to lose his footing as he pressed the United defender, but referee Peter Bankes overturned his original decision, leaving Evanilson facing a three-match suspension. United pressed for an equaliser and, after Mason Mount’s effort was deflected wide, Højlund was on hand to turn home Manuel Ugarte’s shot from close range after good work by Luke Shaw.

 AFC Bournemouth 2 - 1 Leicester City Gary O'Neil enhanced his credentials to become the next permanent Bournemouth manager after leading his side to victory over Leicester City.  Since succeeding Scott Parker, O'Neil has overseen a five-game unbeaten run. This fine win comes after another outstanding comeback against Nottingham Forest last month. Highlights from  AFC Bournemouth - YouTube Although he plays it down when asked, it is increasingly hard to ignore the body of work he is creating at Bournemouth. In terms of the match, Patson Daka's opener gave Leicester some early control, but they failed to capitalise and had no answer to a rousing reply from Bournemouth in the second half. Philip Billing thrashed home a superb volley to level the scores before Ryan Christie touched in Dominic Solanke's knock-down five minutes later to complete the revival. Jamie Vardy came on from the bench to inject urgency into Leicester's play. He went close with a couple of cro...

Bournemouth 2 - 0 Arsenal Bournemouth ended Arsenal’s unbeaten start to the season, with William Saliba receiving the first red card of his career during the match at Vitality Stadium. Author - William G from GMCR Football The French defender was sent off within the first half-hour after tripping Evanilson near the halfway line, following a poor pass from Leandro Trossard that left him exposed. It was the kind of scenario Arsenal had already managed to escape against both Manchester City and Brighton, but this time the challenge would last for over 60 minutes. Arsenal’s resilience eventually crumbled when Ryan Christie scored a brilliant goal, firing into the top corner after a clever corner routine, with substitute Justin Kluivert flicking on Lewis Cook’s low ball into the box. Kluivert later sealed Bournemouth’s win by confidently converting a penalty nine minutes after Christie’s strike. The spot-kick was awarded when David Raya brought down Evanilson, Bournemouth’s £40 million...

Author - Peter Grainger Buoyed by a stunning 3-0 victory over Manchester United in their previous outing , the Cherries looked to build on their push for European football. They created the better chances but struggled to find a clinical edge in front of goal. Andoni Iraola's side came close to breaking the deadlock in the first half when Antoine Semenyo hooked a shot towards goal from a corner, only for Ismaila Sarr to clear off the line. Moments later, Sarr thought he had put Palace ahead after a solo run and finish, but the offside flag denied the visitors. The game was open and fast-paced, with both teams pressing high and attacking in numbers. Bournemouth had the lion’s share of opportunities and looked more likely to score, but their efforts couldn’t prevent a Boxing Day stalemate. Despite 18 atte...
