Everton 2-3 Bournemouth - Iraola 's positive changes reap late dividends
Bournemouth scored two goals in second-half stoppage time for the first time ever in a Premier League game

Outplayed throughout this encounter, Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola could scarcely believe what he had just witnessed at the final whistle.
Coming into the match on the back of two frustrating Premier League draws and a Carabao Cup defeat to West Ham, he was able to savour their first win of the campaign in barely believable circumstances.
However, there was also some delight in way his team pressed forward late on to punish a wasteful and ultimately vulnerable Everton side, who panicked after Antoine Semenyo's 87th minute tap-in brought them back to 2-1.
The Spaniard should also take credit for attempting to go on the offensive as his side struggled, with the introduction of Django Ouattara and Luis Sinisterra proving key to the final outcome.
Burkina Faso winger Ouattara's assist allowed Semenyo to give the visitors hope, then the Colombia winger delivered an assist and a goal as the Cherries' sensational fightback moved them up to seventh in the table.
