Wolves continued their push towards European qualification as they heaped more woe on Marco Silva’s Everton, condemning the Toffees to their fourth defeat in six league games.

Ruben Neves put Wolves ahead with an early penalty before Andre Gomes equalised for Everton midway through the first half.

But after Raul Jimenez regained the lead for Wolves on the stroke of half time, Leander Dendoncker sealed the 3-1 win.

Chelsea ran riot against Huddersfield, surging to a 5-0 victory inspired by braces from Gonzalo Higuain and Eden Hazard.

Crystal Palace swatted aside Claudio Ranieri’s lacklustre Fulham 2-0 at Selhurst Park as Luka Milivojeic scored from the spot after 25 minutes before Jeffrey Schlupp calmed any nerthe victory with just three minues to play.

Brighton’s winless run continued as the Seagulls laboured to a 0-0 draw against Watford, while Ashley Barnes’ last-gasp penalty saved Burnley’s blushes at Turf Moor where it finished 1-1 against Southampton.

33 mins: Cardiff 1 - 0 Bournemouth

Bournemouth have been increasing their possession of the ball but they haven't been penetrating in the final third of the pitch. Paterson gives away a free kick to Bournemouth.

36 mins: Cardiff 1 - 0 Bournemouth

Cardiff break away on the counter, Niasse is offside but makes his run in an arch to brings himself back onside before the ball is played to him. He receives it and runs down the right before sending it into the box looking for Murphy. Murphy goes down but doesn't get a penalty.

41 mins: Cardiff 1 - 0 Bournemouth

Bournemouth win a free kick on the halfway line but they make no use of it. Solanke gets the ball away and Bobby Reid wins a free kick for the home side.

45 mins: Cardiff 1 - 0 Bournemouth

Interesting first half. Bournemouth have had the majority of possession but haven't made a lot of use of it. Cardiff have been quick on the counter attack but haven't been clinical in front of goal and a moment of madness from Cook is the difference between the two teams.

SECOND HALF: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth - Reid

Cardiff double their lead from the restart, Gunnarsson slots in Reid, who is onside, and Boruc comes out to try and beat him to the ball. Reid moves the ball past Boruc and casually passes it into the net.

49 mins: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth

That goal was so quick that Neil Warnock was still in the tunnel and missed the goal. Bournemouth look shaky at the back, Murphy is sent in behind with a ball over the top but nothing comes of it.

52 mins: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth

Clyne gets caught unawares at the back and gets booked. The free kick yields a corner for Cardiff but Bournemouth defend it.

56 mins: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth

Bournemouth win a corner, Stanislas plays it in and Cook wins the header. He knocks it down into the centre of the box and Cardiff clear it away.

60 mins: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth

Bournemouth have a free kick on the edge of the box, it's put into the box and sails over everyone's heads. 30 minutes for Bournemouth to get something out of the game. 

Michael Jones2 February 2019 18:47

63 mins: Cardiff 2 - 0 Bournemouth

Stanislas and Solanke go off, Ibe and Mousset come on as Bournemouth make two changes.
