In a nail-biting match on Wednesday evening, Ghanaian striker Antoine Semenyo scored the winning goal for Bournemouth in their 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The match, held at the Molineux Stadium, saw Semenyo play the full game.
Before the game, the head-to-head record stood at four wins for Wolverhampton Wanderers, three wins for AFC Bournemouth, and two draws. However, Semenyo's performance tipped the scales in Bournemouth's favor.
The decisive moment came in the 37th minute when Semenyo capitalized on a mistake by Wolves' Kilman. Failing to clear a cut-back from Kerkez, Kilman inadvertently flicked the ball upwards, allowing Semenyo to volley it home and secure a well-deserved lead for Bournemouth.
Despite Wolves having more possession, Bournemouth managed to create more shooting opportunities. The game took a dramatic turn in the 79th minute when Milos Kerkez was sent off for a dangerous challenge on Doherty, leaving Bournemouth to play the remainder of the game with 10 men. The decision was confirmed by VAR, adding to the tension on the field.
Semenyo has been a key player for Bournemouth this season, making 28 appearances, scoring nine goals, and providing two assists in the league.
