Semenyo, who played the full 90 minutes, found the net in the second half to level the score at 1-1.

Bournemouth had more possession in the game, while Everton fired more shots. Everton initially took the lead with Michael Keane's goal in the 50th minute. Dominic Calvert-Lewin then extended their advantage, but Bournemouth fought back fiercely.

Semenyo’s crucial strike ignited their comeback, and further goals from Lewis Cook and Luis Sinisterra completed the turnaround, sealing a 3-2 win. This match was a rematch of their earlier encounter this season, which Bournemouth had won 2-1.

Bournemouth will play Chelsea in their next league game on September 14th.
