Latest PostBournemouth 'lacking a killer instinct'
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Jermaine Jenas
Former Newcastle and England midfielder on Final Score
"This is a classic case of "that's football". The Cherries have just not put the ball in the back of the net, and have done everything but. They have demonstrated passion and attacking intent, but they are lacking a killer instinct."
FULL-TIME
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Newcastle leapfrog the Cherries out of the bottom three. The Match of the Day highlights will confirm just how dominant Bournemouth were.
Safe journey home if you've been at the game. Bye.
FULL-TIME

That's it. Bournemouth could do little more. Newcastle could do little less, but it's the visitors who earn a first away win of the season. It could be a huge turning point.

"Adam Federici could have a deckchair out. It's all been played in Newcastle's half. Bournemouth are looking tired and frustrated."
YELLOW CARD

Adam Smith brings down Florian Thauvin and goes into the book. The ball is delivered from the left and Fabricio Coloccini heads over. Steve McClaren appeals for a corner and he may have a case. That was their second effort on goal.

YELLOW CARD

He might play like Andrea Pirlo, but Harry Arter has just been booked for pulling down Moussa Sissoko. Bit of a lull in the game now, which will suit Newcastle.
Arter or Pirlo?
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Terry Butcher
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 live
"Do you think Harry Arter looks like a more mobile Andrea Pirlo? He wants the ball all the time."

Matt Ritchie swings it in, and that man Rob Elliot punches clear. You were missing him weren't you?

Penalty appeal
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Newcastle defender Chancel Mbemba blocks the run of Andrew Surman and the home fans appeal for a penalty. Very similar to Fabricio Coloccini's challenge on Steven Fletcher, for which the Argentine was sent off against Sunderland.
'You feel for Bournemouth'
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Terry Butcher
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 live
"You think Newcastle are well capable of breaking out and scoring a second goal. You feel for Bournemouth; the chances they've made have been excellent and they are facing a keeper in form yet again."
SUBSTITUTION

Cleared once again. Newcastle striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who's had a quiet game, is being replaced by Papiss Cisse.

Newcastle's Ayoze Perez goes down under the challenge of Simon Francis, but it amounted to nothing. The Cherries faithful are unhappy. Down the other end, Matt Ritchie wins another corner.

"C'mon Bournemouth" shout the home fans. It's their 11th corner of the game, but if they have been poor today, it has been at set-pieces.
Post update
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Harry Arter, Dan Gosling and Matt Ritchie are really pulling the strings in midfield for the Cherries today. They have been indefatigable.

Bournemouth's Junior Stanislas has taken a whack to the head, so the referee has stopped play. Time to work out what's going on for the Cherries. The attending 11,155 fans might be wondering...

I'm not sure what more Bournemouth can do. Other than keep their composure.
Post update

Matt Ritchie is down the right again, and his swirling cross catches the wind and almost catches out Robbie Elliot but he is wise to it and cracks a disbelieving smile soon after.
'Bournemouth really must score'
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Terry Butcher
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 live
"Constant pressure from Bournemouth, but if you have this kind of pressure you really must score. Because if Newcastle break away and get a second then it's game over.
"I've just seen Eddie Howe taking a swig of water - I think he might be wanting something stronger! His side should be miles ahead here - if this was a boxing fight you'd call it off."
Post update
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Two more Bournemouth chances go begging. Matt Richie cross from the right and Dan Gosling mis-hits his effort despite being unmarked eight yards out from goal. Then Junior Stanislas whacks it over from 12 yards. Terrible finishing.
Post update
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Newcastle almost the architects of their own downfall here. Daryl Janmaat plays a pass back to Rob Elliot and somehow he digs it out. Fabricio Coloccini then blocks Matt Ritchie's shot. Pinball in there!

Kev: If only Callum Wilson was fit I think Bournemouth would easily be mid-table by now. Such hard luck for the Cherries. Hope they stay up.

When you are in the zone, you know it and Rob Elliot is having one of those days. Bournemouth attack down the left, but this time Dan Gosling's header is over.
Great save

It's that man again. Rob Elliot makes a stunning save to deny Matt Ritchie's diving header. Brilliant, just brilliant from the Newcastle goalkeeper. He's loving this.

"Bournemouth have slaughtered Newcastle 0-1. It's bizarre but that's football. That's the way things are going for Bournemouth at the moment. Newcastle may feel it's their day."

You can see how deep Newcastle have been by looking at their average positions. The visitors are on the right, by the way!

Bournemouth are finding loads of holes in the Newcastle defence. Under this pressure you think Newcastle must buckle soon – it’s brilliant play from Bournemouth.

"It's their first real decent attack. A little bit of a lucky bounce on the edge of the box but it falls to Ayoze Perez and there's not much power in it but it's enough to beat Adam Federici."

Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
That was Newcastle's first shot but Bournemouth are back at it and Sylvain Distin heads just wide but is called offside.
Post update
Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Not been a great season for Bournemouth's goalkeepers so far. Artur Boruc had a shocker against Tottenham and Adam Federici has not been an able deputy.
GOAL - Bournemouth 0-1 Newcastle
Ayoze Perez
All the possession but none of the goals. From their first meaningful attack, Newcastle cut in from the left, Georginio Wiljnaldum clips it through to Ayoze Perez who fires low past Adam Federici, who might have done better.
Post update

Terry Butcher

"Newcastle are trying to slow it down because Bournemouth are flying. It’s a worrying time for Newcastle, but for all Bournemouth's possession they haven't scored yet."

Bournemouth are willing to commit men forward, but Newcastle are too slow to counter so far.

The Newcastle defence has certainly been the busier of the two so far. Their midfield has yet to get a grip of the ball, but they are starting to build some possession now before it goes out of play.

'Matt Ritchie to win it'
Bournemouth v Newcastle (12:45 GMT)
Jonathan Pearce
BBC football commentator
"On the day of the only previous league meeting at Bournemouth, Ride on Time went to number one. I loathed it. 'Gotta get up. Gotta get up!' The repetition was draining.
"That's the danger of Bournemouth's corrosive run to their confidence. Now's the time to dig deep.
"Yes, Artur Boruc had a howler on my last visit. But the whole side gave Spurs too much room. They need to get in Newcastle faces.
"The visitors likewise need to worry about points, not injuries. Just one away goal scored is the worst record in in the top 10 divisions.
"They should score, but I fancy Bournemouth's Matt Ritchie to win it."

Terry Butcher
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 live

Team news
Bournemouth v Newcastle (12:45 GMT)
We'll get some more Cherries chat in a minute but, first, let's check on the team news.
'No excuses'
Bournemouth v Newcastle (12:45 GMT)
Despite his side's wretched run of five games without a win, there is no panic from Cherries boss Eddie Howe, who had a revealing chat with the Guardian this week. Despite their injury crisis, Howe is refusing to use that as an excuse and says his team's plight is because "we haven’t performed well enough and we’ve made some individual mistakes.”
Refreshingly honest, as always.
Running out of gas?
Bournemouth v Newcastle (12:45 GMT)
Bournemouth might have covered more ground than their opponents this season, but after an encouraging start to the season the Cherries have started to turn a bit sour. Eddie Howe's side, who are fourth from bottom in the table, host Newcastle, who are a point beneath them.
Time to turn corner?
Bournemouth v Newcastle (12:45 GMT)
Some hardy souls from Tyneside will have been up in the wee small hours to get to Dean Court today. If you're making a round-trip of 720 miles, you'd hope that your side might put on a decent performance.
But other than that stunning effort against Norwich, they have been in short supply. Is this the game where Steve McClaren's side can turn the corner?
