Newcastle United’s Anthony Gordon equalised 14 minutes from time to secure a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth in the Premier League on Sunday and spoil their hosts’ 125th anniversary celebrations.

Marcus Tavernier put Bournemouth ahead in the first half but Gordon stole in at the back post to steer home a 76th-minute cross from substitute Harvey Barnes to ensure a deserved share of the spoils.

Newcastle advanced to four points from their opening two games of the season. Bournemouth drew their opener at Nottingham Forest.

Bournemouth, hoping for a win to mark their anniversary festivities, had the ball in the net in stoppage time for what looked initially to be a dramatic late winner but Dango Ouattara’s effort was ruled out for handball after a VAR check.

Newcastle are finding the pressure from the home side relentless at the minute. They will be praying for half time at this rate.

The game is incredibly even at this point, with the possession being shared 48 percent to 52 percent between Bournemouth and Newcastle respectively.

A poor free kick into the wall, but it is pushed out for Bournemouth’s first corner of the game by Pope.

Longstaff with a needless foul just outside the penalty area on Christie. A perfect chance for the home side to take the lead from 25 yards out.

Kerkez is rolling around in agony as Murphy accidentally stood on the hand of the Bournemouth fullback. The Hungarian tackled the winger and as he slid in the boot of Murphy stood on the fullback. An accident, referee checks the player. All good.

Semenyo with an incredible effort. Bournemouth built cleverly around the edge of the Newcastle box, but the winger got impatient and moved the ball out of his feet and curled the ball from the corner of the penalty area. The ball dipping and moving furiously in the air, leaving Pope hapless but the shot rattled off the bar and the score remains level.

Newcastle are pressing Bournemouth expertly. Giving the home side no options to get out and start an attack, forcing them to kick the ball long.

Evanilson almost had the dream start to his Premier League campaign. But Bournemouth’s record signing couldn’t get his shot past Pope. The Newcastle got down quickly to get his knee in the way as the striker fired his left-footed effort from a narrow angle at the edge of the six-yard box. Great save.

Guimaraes hits the floor looking for a free kick. Nothing given by the referee to the Newcastle captain. A lot of complaining done following by the Brazilian for what he felt was a kick out, but VAR had a look. Nothing coming of it.
