Justin Kluivert scored a stunning hat-trick as Bournemouth defeated Newcastle 4-1, ending the Magpies' nine-game winning streak. The Cherries dominated the match, with Kluivert also netting twice either side of Bruno Guimaraes' equaliser. Milos Kerkez added a fourth goal for Bournemouth, extending their unbeaten run to 11 games.
JUSTIN KLUIVERT ended Newcastle ’s nine-game winning run with a stunning hat-trick as Bournemouth strengthened their claims of European football with a fine victory at St James’ Park.
Bournemouth set out their stall from the off with Sandro Tonali having to make a timely second-minute intervention after David Brooks had run in behind full-back Lewis Hall and sent the ball across the six-yard box, but Newcastle simply did not heed the early warning. Advertisement Joelinton spooned a 21st-minute attempt high over after Anthony Gordon, Isak and Guimaraes had combined, and it was Guimaraes who dragged them back into the game, beating keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga with a firm header from Hall’s 25th-minute corner.
But it was the visitors who regained the lead four minutes later when Christie robbed Guimaraes and Semenyo slid in Kluivert to fire beyond Dubravka’s despairing dive for his fourth goal in three games.
