"For 95 minutes, Antoine Semenyo had done nothing other than receive a yellow card for his 26th birthday. Then came the farewell moment he had dreamed of. Delivered the ball on the edge of the Tottenham penalty area, he struck the sweetest of shots past a helpless Guglielmo Vicario to end Bournemouth's longest barren run of their Premier League era and sign off in the most perfect fashion."
"Making his 50th Premier League appearance, Evanilson scored Bournemouth's opener, nodding home a lovely cross from Marcus Tavernier when afforded far too much time and space down the right to identify his target inside the Tottenham box. The second came from the same source when another Tavernier cross found Marcos Senesi beyond the far post and he pulled the ball back inside for Junior Kroupi to turn in from close range."
Antoine Semenyo received a yellow card on his 26th birthday before producing a stoppage-time winner to end Bournemouth's 11-game winless run. A move to Manchester City is imminent, allowing him to leave with the club's blessing and prompting Andoni Iraola to admit he will be almost impossible to replace. Marcus Tavernier supplied the crosses for Bournemouth's early goals, including Evanilson's 50th Premier League appearance opener and the build-up to Junior Kroupi's close-range finish. Kroupi's goal took his season tally to seven, level with Lamine Yamal among Europe's top-five-league teenagers. Tottenham, who took an early lead through Mathys Tel, have won only twice in their last 12 league outings.
