AFC Bournemouth vs Newcastle United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Bourneouth 1-1 Newcastle: Miguel Almiron snatched a draw for the Magpies
Miguel Almiron’s 10th goal of the season and a late goal-line clearance by Kieran Trippier ensured Newcastle boss Eddie Howe claimed a point on his Bournemouth return but only after a potentially costly 1-1 draw.
Marcos Senesi poked the struggling Cherries ahead and while Almiron levelled by half-time, the Magpies could not arrest their stuttering form and slumped to a fifth draw from their last six Premier League fixtures.
It may have been worse had Trippier not denied Dominic Solanke’s goalbound flick on the verge of full-time and that ensured the visitors extended their unbeaten top-flight run to 17 matches but injuries to Joe Willock, Almiron and Allan Saint-Maximin will be a major concern to Howe with the Carabao Cup final only two weeks away.

Saint-Maximin is down for the visitors after falling awkwardly in his challenge with Fredericks. It does not look good for the Frenchman.

Fredericks is on the spot at the back post to head clear a dangerous cross away from Saint-Maximin. The flag was up for offside anyway against Murphy in the build-up.
