Bournemouth<\/a> claimed a first competitive win under new manager Marco Rose by beating Lincoln City 4-0 in the EFL Cup third round.<\/p>\n

A Ryan Christie hat-trick and a late Rayan strike booked Bournemouth’s place in the fourth round at the expense of the Championship side, who started brightly at the Vitality Stadium but soon faded.<\/p>\n

Rose fielded a rotated side with eight players dropping out of the team that drew 2-2 with Newcastle<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The depth of quality in his squad soon told as Ben Gannon-Doak and Christie combined brilliantly for the seventh-minute opener.<\/p>\n

Christie met Gannon-Doak’s cross from the left with a cushioned volley that beat Lincoln goalkeeper Joe Gauci at his near post.<\/p>\n

Lincoln were soon gifted a chance to equalise, but Ryley Towler blazed over an unguarded goal after Bournemouth debutant Michele Di Gregorio fumbled the ball into his path.<\/p>\n

The Premier League side dominated thereafter. Bafode Diakite saw his flicked header tipped away, before Christie stung the palms of Gauci on the stroke of half-time.<\/p>\n

Bournemouth defender James Hill was nearly the unlikely source of a wondergoal early in the second half, but his drive from outside the penalty area slammed the top of the post.<\/p>\n

Alvaro Rodriguez went close with a header on his first start since a summer move from Elche, before Christie headed in his second goal of the night from a David Brooks corner.<\/p>\n

Lincoln already looked beaten, but there was still time for Christie to complete his treble with a cool finish after the visitors failed to clear a corner.<\/p>\n

Substitute Rayan added a fourth in injury-time by finishing off a swift counter-attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bournemouth claimed a first competitive win under new manager Marco Rose by beating Lincoln City 4-0 in the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":884925,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-884924","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/884924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=884924"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/884924\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/884925"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=884924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=884924"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=884924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
