That's it for our coverage of the opening night of the Championship campaign.

The 2021-22 EFL season got off to a lively start as Bournemouth drew 2-2 with relegated West Brom.

There will be plenty more thrills and spills to come between now and May, but will either of these sides manage to mount a promotion challenge?

Another of the relegated Premier League trio - Sheffield United - are in action tomorrow.

We'll have more live commentary on the EFL action from 14:00 BST tomorrow. Do join us then.

If you want a recap of tonight's action from the Vitality Stadium, Ged Scott's match report will do the trick.

What a treat to have capacity crowds - and away fans - back after the coronavirus lockdown.

West Brom supporters had plenty to cheer about.

Their side didn't have as much possession, but did have plenty of attempts on goal.

In some ways, this game has been a mere amuse-bouche for the rest of the weekend's EFL action.

There are nine more Championship games tomorrow, with Sheffield United v Birmingham rounding off the action at 20:00 BST.

And there's a full programme in League One and League Two.

It's the start of the season, and anything is possible...

Both Bournemouth boss Scott Parker and West Brom counterpart Valerien Ismael will probably be content with a point.

The Cherries have a host of senior players missing through suspension and injury.

But, despite going ahead twice, the hosts were unable to impress their style on the game.

Ismael goes over to the away stand to applaud the travelling Baggies fans.

It ends honours even at the Vitality Stadium.

Emiliano Marcondes put the Cherries ahead, before Dara O'Shea equalised before half-time.

Philip Billing stroked the hosts back ahead but Callum Robinson rounded off a well-worked move to drag the Baggies level again.

Cedric Kipre chases the ball to the byline in the Bournemouth box and goes to ground under the challenge of a defender.

The referee says goal kick.

West Brom pick up a free-kick on halfway.

One more chance to hoist the ball into the box...

Christian Saydee, who scored in the Cherries' 5-0 EFL Cup win over MK Dons last weekend, comes on for David Brooks.

It's another inswinging corner from Alex Mowatt, and the Bournemouth defence manage to deal with it.

There will be four minutes of added time, and the hosts are preparing a late sub to kill a few seconds.

Baggies sub Kenneth Zohore uses his physicality and experience to win a corner on the right off Jordan Zemura.

Grumbles and moans from the home supporters as Baggies wing-back Darnell Furlong wins a free-kick inside the West Brom half.

The referee has a word with a ball-boy at the West Brom end who was causing a bit of drama for the visiting players.

The Baggies make another change as Karlan Grant comes off to be replaced by Kenneth Zohore.

Zohore missed out on the Premier League adventure last season, as he had an injury-hit loan spell at Millwall instead.

West Brom captain Jake Livermore is the latest player in the book for a trip on Gavin Kilkenny in midfield.

Good goalkeeping from Bournemouth keeper Mark Travers, who gets a good fist on the ball through a crowd of players.

The Cherries defence deals with a long throw from Darnell Furlong.

But they concede a corner. It could be a nervous last few minutes for the home supporters.

Alex Mowatt swings a free-kick into the Bournemouth box from wide on the right.

The ball eventually drops to Jake Livermore on the edge of the area, but he skews his half-volley well over the bar.

Into the final 10 minutes on the south coast.

Will there be a winner? West Brom have threatened from set pieces while Bournemouth have looked lively at times.

It's been a really good game as a curtain-raiser for the EFL campaign.

Baggies midfielder Alex Mowatt gets a yellow for a late challenge on Bournemouth left-back Jordan Zemura on halfway.

The young defender is making his first league start, and hasn't looked out of his depth.

West Brom keeper David Button is called into action again.

Dominic Solanke is played into the box, and his low left-footed effort is struck on target.

Button gets his body behind it.

Solanke netted 15 league goals last season, but hasn't had too many sights at goal this evening.
