AFC Bournemouth came from three goals down to secure a miraculous victory against relegation-threatened Luton Town in a game rescheduled following Tom Lockyer’s cardiac arrest in December.
The first-half was all Luton as they opened the scoring when Jordan Clark met an unmarked Tahith Chong who headed the ball past Neto in the Cherries net.
The Hatters added two more to their tally through Chiedozie Ogbene and later Premier League veteran Ross Barkley to take a seemingly unassailable lead into the break.
However, Bournemouth came out fighting and it only took five minutes of the second-half for Dominic Solanke to score a goal-of-the-season contender when his slick skill put him through on goal to slot the ball home.
The Cherries grabbed their second when Illia Zabarnyi finished off a sequence of headers in the Luton box by firing the ball inches over the away side’s goal line.
Antoine Semenyo scored a shocking equaliser when he cut inside and drilled it past Thomas Kaminski into the bottom corner from just outside the 18-yard box.
With the game level, Ross Barkley missed the chance to restore Luton’s lead when he headed wide with an open net in front of him and soon after Semenyo grabbed his second and Bournemouth’s historic fourth.
Rob Edwards’ side struggled to react and the in-form Cherries rode the wave of momentum to secure a famous 4-3 win that will go down in the Premier League history books.
Adding to the south-coast joy, £24m midfielder Tyler Adams made his Premier League debut for Bournemouth in an emotional game with Luton skipper Tom Lockyer watching on moments after reuniting with the doctors that saved his life in the postponed fixture.
