AFC Bournemouth relegated from the Premier League

A 3-1 win on Merseyside wasn’t enough for the Cherries to stay in the Premier League on Sunday as Eddie Howe’s men go down to the Championship next season.

Joshua King opened the scoring from the penalty spot following Richarlison’s handball. Moise Kean equalised after 41 minutes, tapping home Theo Walcott’s cross.

Dominic Solanke headed home on the stroke of half-time to regain the lead before Junior Stanislas wrapped up the three points in the second half.

However, Aston Villa securing a draw against West Ham United meant the Cherries’ five-season spell in the Premier League comes to an end.
