Bournemouth produce stunning late turnaround as Everton collapse at home
Luis Sinisterra scored in the sixth minute of stoppage time as Bournemouth left it late to come from 2-0 down and stun Everton 3-2 to put more pressure on Sean Dyche.
The hosts looked to be cruising after second-half goals from Michael Keane and Dominic Calvert-Lewin rewarded some fine attacking play, but it all unravelled at the death.
Antoine Semenyo’s 87th minute tap-in was only Bournemouth’s second shot on target but moments later Lewis Cook headed them level in the second minute of added time.
Worse was to come, and Jordan Pickford had to make saves from both Marcus Tavernier and Semenyo before Sinisterra found space to nod in Justin Kluivert’s cross, with Everton’s players slumping on to the Goodison turf in disbelief.
After conceding seven times in opening defeats to Brighton and Tottenham, Everton had looked much improved as they dominated the vast majority of the match, but the way they threw it away at the end begs huge questions as they hope to avoid yet another scrap at the foot of the table.
A pre-match tribute to former Everton striker Kevin Campbell, who died in June at the age of 54, had stirred the emotions inside Goodison Park and the Toffees were roared on as they made an encouraging start.
Eight minutes in Iliman Ndiaye, handed his first Premier League start four days after opening his Everton account in the 3-0 Carabao Cup win over Doncaster, linked up with Tim Iroegbunam to play in Jack Harrison, but his ball flashed across the face of goal, eluding the run of Calvert-Lewin.
What. A. Game!!!
