Bournemouth pulled off an extraordinary 3-2 victory over Everton at Goodison Park, overturning a two-goal deficit in the final minutes of the match.
Despite trailing 2-0 with just three minutes remaining, the Cherries mounted one of the Premier League’s most remarkable comebacks.
After a scoreless first half, Everton surged ahead in the second, with goals from Michael Keane and Dominic Calvert-Lewin putting them in control.
Calvert-Lewin’s strike was particularly significant, given the persistent transfer rumors surrounding his future throughout the summer.
As it seemed that Sean Dyche’s side would finally shake off consecutive goalless defeats, Bournemouth had other plans. Antoine Semenyo sparked the comeback in the 87th minute, initially appearing to score what might have been only a consolation goal. But the late drama was far from over.
In the 92nd minute, Lewis Cook rose in the penalty area to meet a lofted cross, heading it powerfully into the bottom corner, bringing Bournemouth level. For many, a point seemed like a win, but Bournemouth wasn’t finished yet.
In the 96th minute, Luis Sinisterra delivered what will be remembered as one of Bournemouth’s most iconic Premier League moments.
Positioned at the back post, he connected with an inswinging cross, directing a header into the net from close range, leaving Everton’s fans in shock and despair.
The result leaves Bournemouth in seventh place, while Everton languish at the bottom of the table, yet to earn a point and with a troubling -8 goal difference.
Considering the match’s dramatic progression, there were cases to be made for players from both teams for the man of the match. However, Sinisterra’s decisive impact off the bench—providing the assist for the equalizer and scoring the winner—makes him the clear choice.
After the international break, Everton face a daunting away match at Aston Villa, still searching for their first points of the season.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth will prepare to welcome an inconsistent Chelsea side on September 14, confident with five points already secured from their first three games.
In another match, Ipswich secured their first point of the season with a 1-1 draw against Fulham.
Liam Delap’s first-half goal gave Ipswich an early lead in their quest for a Premier League win, but they had to settle for a draw after Fulham’s Adama Traore equalized later in the half.
Ipswich’s opening goal came in the 15th minute, with Delap drifting across the box before unleashing a powerful shot that Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno got a hand to, but couldn’t keep out.
Fulham responded in the 32nd minute when Antonee Robinson sent a cross into the box, which Traore expertly finished with a first-time strike to cap Fulham’s best attacking move.
The match was marked by its physicality, with both teams struggling to create clear-cut chances.
Despite a late effort from Omari Hutchinson during stoppage time, neither side could break the deadlock, and the game ended with both teams sharing the points.
