Bournemouth scored three late goals to stun Everton 3-2 in the Premier League at Goodison Park and leave the hosts without a point from three matches.

Everton opened up a 2-0 lead in a seven-minute spell after the break with goals from Michael Keane and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

Bournemouth spent most of the game on the back foot, barely threatening the Everton goal, but with three minutes left they pulled a goal back when Antoine Semenyo poked home from close range.

In added time, Lewis Cook’s powerful header found the back of the net and Luis Sinisterra broke Everton hearts with the winner to leave Everton rooted to the bottom of the table.

Into the sidenetting! McNeil whips a deep corner delivery into the box from the right, which is met at the back post by Calvert-Lewin, but he only had a very tight angle to aim at and his header flies into the sidenetting.

Everton are just the fourth Premier League side to lose their opening two matches in a season without scoring and shipping 7+ goals, along with Leicester in 2001-02 (9 conceded), Wigan in 2010-11 (10 conceded) and Norwich in 2021-22 (8 conceded).

Everton chance! Harrison races into the Bournemouth penalty area and fires a low drilled cross into the six-yard box, looking for Calvert-Lewin, but the striker can't quite reach it and the ball fizzes out of play.

Good move by Bournemouth! They work it well down the left wing and a deep cross is whipped into the box towards Semenyo, but his volley flies high and wide of the Everton goal.

It's the visitors who have seen more of the ball so far in the early stages of the game, but they haven't created anything in the final third yet.

Lovely stuff from Semenyo, he has a great first touch to bring the ball down and then sprints over the halfway line and into the Everton half of the pitch. It takes a couple of Everton players to crowd round him to stop him, but ultimately they trip the winger and he wins a free-kick.

Everton are pushing up the pitch and putting Bournemouth under a lot of pressure when the visitors have the ball in their own half. The home fans will want to see a fast start from their side today after a poor opening to their campaign.
