Wolverhampton v Bournemouth: Iraola puts Bournemouth in the noble zone
ANDAndoni Iraola’s Bournemouth can now boast of being in the top ten in the Premier League. This Wednesday they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-1 thanks to a goal from Antoine Semenyo and moved up to tenth place with 45 points.
Iraola also won the derby against Gary O’Neill, the manager Bournemouth sacked in the summer to sign him. While there are no bad feelings between the two managers, this Wednesday’s victory at Molineux is a demonstration that the Bournemouth board were right to bet on the Spaniard, with whom the club had gone from fighting to avoid relegation to the lower league, in order to become closer to Europe than to get to the Championship.
There are eight points left to sixth place, which Newcastle United currently occupy, and twenty points to Luton Town’s relegation.
The win over Wolves was made possible by Semenyo, the man with eight goals in this Premier League, who capitalized on a poorly cleared ball in the box to make it 0-1. As a result, the Cherries suffered, who played one player less for the last twenty minutes due to Milos Kerkez being sent off for a straight red card and saw a goal disallowed against Wolverhampton in the 101st minute due to offside, but came away with three glasses. from Wolverhampton that they legitimize Iraola’s work.
Wolves, who are also not in danger of relegation, are twelfth with 43 units.
