Bournemouth exhibited dominance on the field, securing a resounding 3-0 victory against Brighton and achieving a historic milestone by surpassing their club-record Premier League points total.
The triumph at the Vitality Stadium propelled Andoni Iraola’s squad to a remarkable 48 points, surpassing their previous record of 46 points set during the 2016/17 campaign, with just three matches left to play.
The Cherries seized an early advantage as Marcos Senesi’s well-placed header found the net within the opening 15 minutes, while Enes Unal further solidified their lead with a headed goal in the second half, redeeming himself for an earlier missed opportunity.
The victory was sealed with style as Justin Kluivert showcased individual brilliance, netting a sensational solo goal in the 87th minute to embellish Bournemouth’s performance.
In stark contrast, Brighton struggled to make an impact, mustering only a solitary shot on target throughout the match, highlighting their recent struggles with just one win in their last nine league fixtures.
Bournemouth’s consecutive victories, following their midweek triumph over Wolves, propelled them to the 10th position in the league standings, while Brighton, despite remaining in 12th place, have a game in hand.
