Everton 1-0 Bournemouth – as it unfolded
It was do or die Sean Dyche and Everton on the final day of the season as they took on AFC Bournemouth at Goodison Park knowing a win would seal their Premier League survival for another year. And that’s exactly what they got, with Abdoulaye Doucoure volleying home in the second half to clinch a narrow victory in front of a riotous home crowd.
With Leeds losing 4-1 to Tottenham, they went down with a whimper. But with Leciester beating West Ham 2-1 at the King Power Stadium, it made for a nerve-wrecking final day in the relegation battle with plenty of drama.
Doucoure’s eye-catching goal will live long in the memory for Everton fans, with Dyche doing a superb job to save the Toffees after his mid-season arrival following Frank Lampard’s sacking. See how the game unfolded on Standard Sport’s LIVE blog below.
