Bournemouth win at Newcastle to increase pressure on former boss Eddie Howe

Adrien Truffert piled the pressure on Newcastle boss Eddie Howe as former club Bournemouth struck late to snatch a 2-1 Premier League victory at St James’ Park.

The full-back’s 85th-minute intervention inflicted an eighth defeat in 11 league fixtures on the Magpies and severely dented their dwindling hopes of securing European football for next season.

Will Osula looked to have at least spared his head coach, who has now failed to lead Newcastle to a league win over his former club in eight attempts, a third successive top-flight defeat when he cancelled out Marcus Tavernier’s first-half opener.

A brilliant run with a cherry on top
