Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo displayed one of his best performances so far in the 2024-25 Premier League as he scored for Bournemouth in their 3-1 win over Southampton.
The Cherries faced the Saints in a Monday night encounter of matchday six of the English topflight at the Vitality Stadium.
Bournemouth, led by Spanish coach Andoni Iraola, went into the game from a demoralizing 3-0 defeat at Anfield to Liverpool.
Antoine Semenyo was a thorn in the flesh of Southampton, as he had a hand in his side’s second goal before scoring the third.
The Black Stars player sped down the right wing to feed a pass to Lewis Cook, who found Dango Ouattara in space for a cut-back for the latter to score Bournemouth’s second after Evanilson had given them the lead.
Taylor Harwood-Bellis bagged the consolation goal for Southampton after Semenyo had bamboozled the Saints’ defense before smashing the ball into the net from the edge of the box for his third in the league.
The win moves Bournemouth to eleventh on the league standings as they face Leicester City next at the King Power Stadium on Saturday, October 5.
