What a way to close
the New Year with a double and a win considered an important one, catapulting these
embattled Cherries out of the danger zone all the way to fourteenth place.
Still nothing accomplished,
but this win and three points are seen as golden, as the AFC lately the
troubles these been into and today's win at home is seen a step in the right direction
for Eddie Howe and company.
With a sold match in
Vitality Stadium and going against one of the most revitalized and renewed squads
in Premiership, the Everton Toffees, seeing an all-around revival since Big Sam
came to these parts of Merseyside.
This match did not
looked promising or an affair that the locals were to tangle with success in
its entirety, as the School of Science had an unbeaten run of eight matches and
to close 2017 with a win would been the right thing.
Not today as they
came across with a very inspired chap by the name of Ryan Fraser that delivered
when it counted the most and being vocal in a win that gave his squad an all-around
boost in confidence.
Especially when all
of Premiership squads are aware of an upcoming second half with all of the
elements of being a much-contested association and for several squads looking,
forward to their salvation and assure their permanency.
Moreover, these Cherries
are among those squads to put on a fight for their survival.
Today was one of
those days and leaving home with a smile in tier faces after their one of a kind
feat these performed today, the outcome of this young squad in the remainder of
the campaign will be upon their efforts and the way Eddie Howe strategies work
out.
Going to the match,
with a hungry AFC initial eleven that since the beginning of the match their
desires of delivering a wondrous match and looking forward at all times for the
feat at all costs.
Starting with a
couple of attempts from Callum Wilson and later Jordan Ibe, the Cherries were
knocking on the Toffees posts getting their keeper Jordan Pickford a bit tied
up for the time being.
It was in the 33
minute when the locals started a counter attack and with a one two combination
from Joshua King serving a nice volley that an acrobatic Ryan Fraser pushing
the ball and beating the Toffees keeper to the delirium of the attendees in Vitally
Stadium.
As halftime
approached and with the positive drive and game displayed by the locals, the
second half was not going to be a walk in the park for Eddie Howe and company as
they were aware of the capabilities and multiple weapons the visitors came
with.
Still this affair was
not over yet when the visitors answered back with an assist from Oumar Niasse
to Idrisa Gueye for the equalizer in the 57-minute for the visitors reaction and
the joy of their traveling contingent seeing their Boys staging a wondrous comeback.
However, the Cherries
after a series of attempts and putting Everton keeper Jordan Pickford to work
extra in order to save his posts but it was not enough when Ryan Fraser in the
88 minute scored the game winning goal.
Thanks to a power
play created in the midfield by Adam Smith and then passing to Fraser for a
bounce that the visitors goalkeeper could not stop and seeing his side at the end
succumbed by the push of a resilient Cherries squad.
Happy New Year 2018!
