Match Report

Tottenham Hotspur welcomed AFC Bournemouth at the Spurs Stadium. Tottenham's interim manager Christian Stellini set up his team formation with 3-4-2-1, where he used three CBs. Harry Kane led the attack with Son and Kulusevski. On the other hand, Bournemouth's manager also played his team in the same formation as Tottenham. However, the match started with the home side getting an early goal. Forward Son Heungh-Min scored that goal for the Spurs in the 14th minute with the help of Ivan Perisic. After that, Bournemouth responded well and kept fighting. Finally, the visitors found the equalizer in the first half as Matias Vina netted the ball in the 38th minute with Solanke's assist. The scoreline remained the same as both sides failed to score in the remaining minutes of the first half. Returning from the break, Bournemouth stunned the home team. Dominic Solanke, the provider of the 1st goal, scored the second for the visitors. After that, Tottenham Hotspur had gone crazy to equalize with Bournemouth. They had more possession than the visitors and created some serious chances in the final ten minutes. As a result, Tottenham Hotspur scored the 2nd goal as Danjuma netted the ball just two minutes before 90 minutes. It seemed the match could end in a 2-2 tie, but the drama was yet to come. Dango Ouattara, who came off the bench in the 79th minute, scored a very late goal for Bournemouth. His stunning strike found the net in the 90+5th minute, which secured a important victory for AFC Bournemouth. It is the 2nd successive victory for Bournemouth, which helped them climb to the 14th in the league table. On the other hand, Tottenham are in 5th, three points behind fourth place. But they already played one more match than the fourth team in the league.
