Soccer-Bournemouth Back To Winning Ways With 1-0 Victory Over Wolves – News18

WOLVERHAMPTON, England: Bournemouth snapped a three-game winless run in the Premier League with a 1-0 victory at former manager Gary O’Neil’s Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday courtesy of a first-half strike from Antoine Semenyo.

The win moved Bournemouth up to 10th place on 45 points, while Wolves, who have picked up just two points in their last six games, remain 12th on 43.

The visitors looked the better side from the opening exchanges and grabbed the lead after 37 minutes when Semenyo pounced on some sloppy Wolves defending to slot home from close range.

Wolves improved after the break and thought they had equalised with Hwang Hee-chan’s header, but the 66th-minute effort was ruled out by the VAR for a Matheus Cunha foul in the build-up.

Bournemouth were reduced to 10 men with 11 minutes remaining when Milos Kerkez was given a straight red card after a poor tackle on Matt Doherty while Wolves found the net in stoppage time but it was ruled out for offside.
