A calamitous error from Leeds goalkeeper James Trafford set in-form Bournemouth on course for a 2-0 Premier League victory at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n

The England international inexplicably gave away possession following a short goal-kick, allowing Justin Kluivert to set up Cherries forward Evanilson to score his fifth goal in six games in the 31st minute.<\/p>\n

Substitute Amine Adli sealed Bournemouth’s third successive top-flight success \u2013 and sixth in all competitions \u2013 in added time to lift them a point above Leeds in the table.<\/p>\n

The visitors had been the better team before falling behind but could not prevent their winless run stretching to five top-flight games.<\/p>\n

Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin was denied a goal on his 50th appearance for the club after his 11th-minute finish was ruled out for a handball spotted by VAR.<\/p>\n

Visiting boss Daniel Farke, who celebrated his 50th birthday on Friday, watched his side create little on the south coast, with his disappointing afternoon compounded by a first-half booking.<\/p>\n

Igor Thiago was back among the goals while Nottingham Forest fired blanks again in a 2-0 defeat at Brentford.<\/p>\n

Oliver Glasner’s side remain in the bottom three despite another encouraging display between the penalty areas, thanks to a calamitous performance inside both boxes.<\/p>\n

Forest had 12 shots at goal, with two target, compared to Brentford\u2019s six efforts with one on target, and still managed to lose by two.<\/p>\n

Their wayward finishing let them down once again, and their scattergun approach to attacking has still reaped only six league goals this season.<\/p>\n

After falling behind to a freak own goal from Nikola Milenkovic, their fate was sealed in the second half when Thiago hit his second goal of the season.<\/p>\n

Victory ended Brentford\u2019s four-match winless run in what was the 100th Premier League game at the Gtech Stadium, and probably among the worst.<\/p>\n

\"Taiwo
\nTaiwo Awoniyi scores Coventry’s second<\/p>\n

Coventry climbed out of the relegation zone with a 3-1 win over Sunderland that leaves the Black Cats rooted to the bottom of the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Tatsuhiro Sakamoto’s first Premier League goal put Frank Lampard\u2019s side ahead 17 minutes in, Taiwo Awoniyi\u2019s first league goal for Coventry doubled the lead eight minutes before the break and Jack Rudoni all but killed it early in the second half.<\/p>\n

Sunderland were offered a little hope when Enzo Le Fee sent Carl Rushworth the wrong way from the penalty spot in the 67th minute, but they grew increasingly frustrated and finished the match with 10 men as Omar Alderete was shown a second yellow card in stoppage time.<\/p>\n

Hull maintained their unbeaten home record but saw their winless run continue after a cat-and-mouse 2-2 draw with Ipswich at the MKM Stadium.<\/p>\n

Ipswich had the lion’s share of possession in the first half, cutting through Hull\u2019s defence repeatedly and eventually leaving both Nobel Mendy and Konstantinos Tzolakis unable to prevent Florentino Luis\u2019 22nd-minute opener as he sliced through on the right unhindered.<\/p>\n

After 37 minutes the visitors looked to have doubled their lead as Julio Enciso headed the ball in from a corner, but the effort was disallowed for a foul on Oli McBurnie during the previous play.<\/p>\n

Hull upped their game after the break and after 58 minutes Tim Iroegbunam raced down the right and fired home the equaliser.<\/p>\n

The pattern of the game changed entirely and 10 minutes later McBurnie stepped up to a Hull free kick and slammed the ball beyond Christian Walton to give the Tigers the lead.<\/p>\n

But it lasted only six minutes as Enciso worked his way through Hull\u2019s back line to produce a stylish leveller from just outside of the box.<\/p>\n

\"Aston
\nZion Suzuki gifted a point to Fulham with an own goal<\/p>\n

In the late game, Zion Suzuki’s embarrassing howler for Aston Villa allowed Fulham to earn a 1-1 draw at Villa Park.<\/p>\n

The Villa goalkeeper spilled a corner behind the line for a hapless own goal midway through the second half as the Cottagers made it four points from two games to ease pressure on boss Alvaro Arbeloa.<\/p>\n

They were worthy of the point as they responded well to Nicolas Jackson\u2019s first-half opener for the hosts, after John McGinn missed an early penalty.<\/p>\n

The Senegal striker bagged his fifth Premier League goal in five games, but Villa were unable to build on last week\u2019s impressive win over Manchester City as their inconsistent start to the season continued.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A calamitous error from Leeds goalkeeper James Trafford set in-form Bournemouth on course for a 2-0 Premier League…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":671419,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[61,60,112],"class_list":["post-671418","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/671418","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=671418"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/671418\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/671419"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=671418"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=671418"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=671418"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
