    Bournemouth 2-1 Aston Villa

    A chance for Bournemouth to seal the game on the break...

    Harry Wilson's outside-of-the-foot pass sets Callum Wilson free, the striker cuts the ball back into the box for Ryan Fraser, but the Scot cannot convert.

    Cherries boss Eddie Howe turns away in disgust.

  3. YELLOW CARDpublished at 90+2 mins

    Bournemouth 2-1 Aston Villa

    A yellow for Aston Villa defender Kortney Hause for a tug on Callum Wilson.

    Not what Villa need at this stage of the game.

    Good defending from Bournemouth skipper Simon Francis at the near post, sliding in to intercept Matt Targett's dangerous low cross.

    Bournemouth 2-1 Aston Villa

    An attacking change from Dean Smith with 10 minutes remaining.

    Central midfielder Marvelous Nakamba makes way for the more attacking-minded Mahmoud Trezeguet, whose goal took Villa to the Carabao Cup final.

    Villa need to convert one of these headers.

    Matt Targett scoops a cross into the area which Tyrone Mings meets but cannot find the target with.

    Bournemouth 2-1 Aston Villa

    The chances keep coming for Villa.

    Bjorn Engels somehow manages to dig out a cross from the right touchline, Keinan Davis springs to meet it but nods over the bar.

    Villa look like they may get something out of this game.

    Another Villa chance.

    A goal from Mbwana Samatta on his Premier League debut - Villa have plenty of time to get more, and look to be up for it.

    The Tanzanian today becomes the player from the 117th different nationality to play in the Premier League.

    GOAL - Bournemouth 2-1 Aston Villapublished at 16:27 Greenwich Mean Time 1 February 2020

    Mbwana Samatta (70 mins

    GAME ON!

    It is that man Mbwana Samatta on his Premier League debut.

    A real poacher's instinct from the Tanzania international, reacting quickest to Keinan Davis's shot which loops into the air and the former Genk man beats Adam Ramsdale to the ball and nods into the net.

    Bournemouth 2-0 Aston Villa

    Keinan Davies bumped off the ball by Diego Rico in the box, no penalty.

    Anthony Taylor has had a game to forget today, his decision-making has been dismal.

    Anyway, Marvelous Nakamba has a go from outside the box, but unlike his name, his effort is horrible - high and wide of goal.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 65 mins

    Bournemouth 2-0 Aston Villa

    Now Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson booked for leading with his arm in a 50-50 challenge.

  19. CLOSE!published at 64 mins

    Bournemouth 2-0 Aston Villa

    Villa nearly pull a goal back through left-back Matt Targett low drive which is cleared off the line by Simon Francis.

    What a block.

    Keinan Davis has taken his place up top with Mbwana Samatta, with Jack Grealish now playing behind the front two - and getting booed by the home fans for his role in Jefferson Lerma's exit.

    Despite playing 11 against 10 for the final half-hour, Villa may find their spare man is at the back - as they still have three central defenders (Kortney Haouse, Tyrone Mings and sub Bjorn Engels) with only Callum Wilson to mark. But none of them picked him up for that chance just now as Wilson fired wide.
