Amidst VAR drama, AFC Bournemouth have recorded a big 1-0 away win over fellow mid-table side Wolves after an Antoine Semenyo winner.
The Cherries were the better side during the first half but it was Spaniard Pablo Sarabia who had the best chance, pulling a great long-range save out of Mark Travers who was preferred to usual number one Neto.
Despite Bournemouth having more control, Wolves kept creating chances as Rayan Ait-Nouri found himself in a good position but curled his shot wide of the post.
Within a minute, Antoine Semenyo scored the game’s only goal when he pounced on a failed Max Killman clearance to fire past Jose Sa.
The second half was a fairer contest with Wolves thinking they had equalised through a Hwang-Hee-chan header only for VAR to rule it out for a Matheus Cunha foul on Justin Kluivert.
Bournemouth made it difficult for themselves when Milos Kerkez was sent his marching orders for a reckless two-footed tackle on Matt Doherty.
Wolves were denied a second time when Max Killman was deemed offside when he slotted past Travers in the 99th minute.
Andoni Iraola’s men held on to celebrate an impressive 1-0 win over Wolves which sees them go above Fulham, Brighton, and today’s opponents into 10th place.
