A lot of the energy has left Bournemouth in the attack. They have not been able to capitalise on a couple of clear scoring opportunities and now look like they lack ideas going forward.

CHANCE! Bournemouth have another great chance. Brooks flicks the ball into the path of Semenyo, who fires the ball across the box. The Seagulls try and get it away but only clear it as far as Brooks in the middle, who has his strike blocked by Estupinan.

OFF THE LINE! Solanke should have scored again. Semenyo gets down the left side of the box for a second time and blasts a shot at Verbruggen, who makes an important save. The ball goes into the air and Solanke directs it towards the goal, but Dunk gets back to clear it off the line.
