00:00The whistle of Rob Jones from Merseyside gets us underway. Bournemouth have only ever beaten Arsenal once, that was here in 2018.
00:16Declan Rice.
00:25Poor defender. Arsenal will take that all day.
00:30Let's give away Scott, Semenu and Rice got away with it.
00:40That's a goal for Evan Nielsen, contact from Saliba and a decision for referee Rob Jones.
01:04Rob Jones. It's a tough one, John. The ball is quite a way away from Evan Nielsen.
01:10It's a clear tuck, isn't it? Yeah, I thought it might be yellow. Ben White was round on the cover.
01:23I'd like to see, oh, here we go, a wider angle. Would Ben White have got there? No, absolutely not.
01:29Ben White's not getting round, is he? Not at all. Not to the ball first, anyway.
01:41Rob Jones is right down in front of us and we can see him
01:44in Ernie's discussion but it is going to be yellow upgraded to red and William Saliba
01:53has been sent off for the first time in his senior career.
01:59Trossard.
02:10Sterling.
02:18Marino. Now within three or four minutes of the red card, a very clear chance for the depleted gunners.
02:30Scott. Semenya. There was some hesitation from Kibio.
02:38Spills loose and Tavernier finds his follow-up ever blocked.
02:49White.
02:52Price. Parting.
02:59Declan Rice.
03:0820 past six in the evening local time.
03:22Evan Nielsen.
03:27Araujo.
03:29Oh, early but over hit.
03:37So thoughts on the half as a whole, Evan?
03:41A really average sort of 25-30 minutes but it's only sort of come to life a little bit since
03:45the centre that they've had to defend the last few minutes or so without 10 men but
03:50Araujo perhaps a little bit disappointed at not testing the goalkeeper.
03:55Top of the halftime agenda the decision of Rob Jones via VAR to send off William Saliba for the
04:01first time in his senior career. Arsenal down to 10 but level on the score sheet it's Bournemouth
04:06nil, Arsenal nil. So a genuine chance for Bournemouth to add to their solitary win
04:15against Arsenal which came back here in January of 2018. Two of the players now on the field for
04:22the Cherries, Lewis Cook and Adam Smith played on what is a famous day in these parts at least.
04:28Only give the Gunners a 19% chance of winning the title. Here's Wataara and there's Calafiori.
04:36Adam Smith reels it in for Bournemouth. Semenyo now.
04:44The guarded header by Tavernier.
04:45Sinisterra.
05:02He allows the collision to go.
05:05Here's Sinisterra.
05:06Play of white for Bournemouth.
05:17Cook, Kluivert, Christie.
05:24The set-piece kings are undone by a set-piece. He just opens his body out and flicks it inside.
05:31Superbly worked on the finish. Look at the composure from Ryan Christie. Measured, keeps his foot over
05:38the football, side foot away from the goalkeeper and it's so easy to hit the body isn't it? Right there
05:43one or two Arsenal defenders have gone beyond the ball, you can't blame them for that.
05:49Such a delicate touch from Justin Kluivert inside the box isn't it? Had to be absolutely perfect it
05:54was and just hope that the man you're looking for is in the right spot. Christie was once they've
06:00got in store this time. Christie's corner. Wrestling going on and then it was Semenyo
06:12who seized on the loose ball as Bournemouth appeal for a penalty.
06:20Evan Nielsen and Kivius left it short. Evan Nielsen in, he goes down under the challenge
06:25of the goalkeeper and Bournemouth have a penalty.
06:33And the referee with finger pressed to ear
06:40has had one reach towards his pocket then pulled his hand back.
06:48I don't think he'll be overturned yet, just has a look. Evan Nielsen at the goalkeeper.
06:54Rye's already sort of halfway down, almost out of ground by the time they make contact.
06:58David Rye who doesn't have a great penalty saving record having said that he saved spectacularly
07:03from Retegui in the Champions League at Atalanta recently and he saved the follow-up.
07:12This goes in, there doesn't seem to be a way back for the 10 men of Arsenal.
07:15No, this is the match right here.
07:23It's Justin Kluivert and this is the stuff of fantasy for the Cherries of Bournemouth.
07:39This may tell us, yeah there's a second look.
07:42Smooth and well deserved.
07:50His dad would have been proud of that, those stairs in the lower divisions.
07:57Some found lights are still calling Boscombe actually. Here's Gabriel,
08:03done and dusted yet for Bournemouth of course. A magnet for retirees.
08:08It'll be a thunderous noise in a moment or two.
08:15Here's Enes Unal. Oh, didn't see it early enough, didn't turn his body around. A bit short with the pass also.
08:23One of the greatest days in the checkered history of AFC Bournemouth
08:29and a really bad day at the office for Arteta at Arsenal. The most surprising result of the season
08:36so far. Achieved through goals from Christie and Kluivert. Saliba sent off in the first half.
08:46Being in the Premier League is a treat for a club like Bournemouth. Days like this
08:51provide a memorable cherry on the top. Bournemouth 2-0 Arsenal.
