Liverpool 3-0 Bournemouth: Cherries picked off by Reds on frustrating afternoonpublished at 18:16 21 September
Bournemouth thought they had made the perfect start at Anfield when Antoine Semenyo slid home Justin Kluivert's low cross with only five minutes on the clock, only for their celebrations to be cut short by the video assistant referee.
Semenyo kept Kelleher busy in the first half as the Cherries registered 19 attempts for the second successive Premier League game - but they were far too open at the other end as Liverpool cut them open at will.
A Luis Diaz double and a Darwin Nunez stunner gave the hosts a 3-0 half-time lead, making the second-half a mere damage limitation exercise for Iraola's team.
Bournemouth, to their credit, continued to create chances after half-time and went close to a consolation when Luis Sinisterra headed against the crossbar late on, but there was no way back.
To make matters worse, Iraola will now miss next Monday's game against Southampton after picking up a first-half yellow card for remonstrating with the officials.
It was a day to forget for the Cherries, but results like this will not define their season.
