Southampton added to Bournemouth’s relegation woes by beating their South coast neighbours 2-0, courtesy of another goal from Danny Ings on Sunday (July 19). Ings matched Matt le Tissier’s club record of 12 goals away from home in a Premier League season.
Che Adams added a second in added time after the Cheries had pushed hard for an equalizer. They will feel hard done by after VAR denied them what looked like a legitimate equalizer by Sam Sturridge from a tight angle and their manager Eddie Howe feels “deeply hurt”. However, he refused to give up hope.
“The key thing is, while there’s still hope we have to believe until such time as it is mathematically impossible,” said Howe.
“You never know in football, crazy things happen. That’s my immediate thought, but very disappointed. A big chunk of our destiny and our future was still sort of in our hands. It feels like that has slipped away a little bit.”
“I am deeply disappointed, hurt, loads of different emotions are going through my body right now.”
If Watford win on Tuesday (July 22) or at least get a draw against Man City – or Arsenal on the final match-day – Bournemouth must beat Everton in their final game of the season.
