LIVERPOOL, England: Bournemouth scored three late goals to stun Everton 3-2 in the Premier League at Goodison Park on Saturday and leave the hosts without a point from three matches.
Everton, under pressure after two league losses, opened up a 2-0 lead in a seven-minute spell after the break through goals from Michael Keane and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Bournemouth spent most of the game on the back foot, barely threatening the Everton goal, but with three minutes left they pulled a goal back when Antoine Semenyo poked home from close range.
In added time, Lewis Cook's powerful header found the back of the net and Luis Sinisterra broke Everton hearts with the winner to leave Everton rooted to the bottom of the table.
"You have to kill teams off at every level, but particularly at this level," Everton manager Sean Dyche said.
"Everyone was looking at someone else to deal with things and that is when there is trouble."
The sun shone on Goodison, with the fans in fine voice despite their side's dismal start to the season but the opening half brought little in the way of chances.
That all changed five minutes after the interval when Calvert-Lewin chested the ball down to Keane who drilled a low shot past keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, and seven minutes later it looked all over for Bournemouth.
Dwight McNeil slid the perfect ball into the path of Calvert-Lewin who slotted his shot over the onrushing Kepa and it looked as though Bournemouth would suffer their first league defeat of the season.
Instead, however, Everton managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, conceding three goals in quick succession to undo all of their good work.
"We did so much right until they scored their first goal. I think they had one shot on target before then. The game should have been out of sight," Dyche said.
Dango Ouattara's cross across the goal found Semenyo at the back post to pull one back and Bournemouth looked set for a third successive Premier League draw when an unmarked Cook met Sinisterra's cross and powered his header beyond Jordan Pickford.
The game was deep into added time when Justin Kluivert sent a cross into the area and Sinisterra lost his markers to head home the winner and move Bournemouth up to seventh in the standings on five points.
"It was the worst game we played this season. We had been playing very well before but Everton deserved to win today," Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola said.
"But the players kept pushing."
In those dying moments of the game, the Everton fans had their heads in their hands, unable to comprehend what they were witnessing, and at the final whistle the boos rang out around Goodison.
"We really let ourselves down in front of our fans. We cannot take our foot off the gas at this level," defender Seamus Coleman said.
