Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo continued his stellar play on Saturday afternoon, leading AFC Bournemouth to an unexpected Premier League victory over Manchester City.
Manchester City wanted to recover and keep their title ambitions alive after their recent EFL Cup elimination, but Bournemouth had other ideas.
In the ninth minute, Semenyo took advantage of a spectacular run and a deft assist from Milos Kerkez to open the scoring. Without any delay, he made contact with the ball and slid it into the goal to give Bournemouth the lead.
Even though Manchester City tried to tie the score, Evanilson doubled Bournemouth’s lead in the 64th minute.
In the 82nd minute, Josko Gvardiol gave City a response, but it was insufficient to alter the result; Bournemouth won all three points.
Bournemouth moved up to seventh place in the league standings with this win, and Semenyo became the team’s highest scorer of the year with four goals this season.
In the next games, Bournemouth will want to maintain their impressive play as they try to build on this momentum.
