THE GAME
FIRST HALF
The first half of the game between West Ham and Bournemouth was dull, with few shots on goal and no excitement until the 18th minute. The plays stopped at the edge of the box and died in defense. In the 31st minute, Bournemouth had a dangerous chance from a free kick, but the score remained 0-0. Until then, the game continued without much excitement and with many yawns.
In the 37th minute, Bournemouth’s Evanilson took advantage of a rebound from the goalkeeper and scored the goal, livening up the game and putting the visitors ahead 1-0. This goal brought new dynamics to the game, which until then had been quite stagnant.
SECOND HALF
The second half started at the same pace as the first, with Bournemouth controlling possession and creating danger. Until the 12th minute, West Ham barely reacted and seemed to accept defeat. But in the 15th minute, everything changed. From a precise cross, Füllkrug rose well and equalized with a header. Seven minutes later, Kudus made a great individual play and crossed perfectly for Bowen to turn the game around, also from the top.
Just when West Ham seemed to be in control of the match, Evanilson appeared again. In the 33rd minute, after a free kick and a header from Huijsen, the Brazilian took the first touch and sent it into the goal, making it 2-2.
