Wolves 0 Bournemouth 1: Ten-man Cherries leapfrog hosts as Gary O’Neil endures horror against old club

BOURNEMOUTH picked up an impressive 1-0 victory over Wolves at Molineux with one man down to move closer to a top-10 finish.

Antoine Semenyo scored the winner for the Cherries after 37 minutes to extend former boss Gary O’Neil’s winless run to seven matches across all competitions.

However, the visitors lost Milos Kerkez to a straight red card 11 minutes before the whistle following a horror challenge on Matt Doherty.

Wolves thought they got an equaliser in the 10th minute of stoppage time but VAR deemed goalscorer Max Kilman was offside.

The Seasiders are now 10^th in the Premier League table with only five points separating them from seventh place.

That usually leads to a Europa Conference League qualification, which could be a tall order for Andoni Iraola’s men.

Iraola’s brilliant work continued in Wolverhampton after putting sufficient distance between his team and the relegation zone a few months ago.

This marked Bournemouth’s first away win since March 3 when they beat Burnley 2-0 at Turf Moor as they went on to lose their next two visits at Luton Town and Aston Villa.
