After a quiet opening 45 minutes at Goodison Park back in Matchweek 3, things came to life in the second half with all FIVE goals being scored, two of which came in stoppage time as Bournemouth produced an astonishing turnaround to win 3-2.

Here, we recall how this incredible August encounter unfolded. You can watch highlights of the match in the video below.

 

12mins: CHANCE! Dominic Calvert-Lewin almost gives Everton the lead, but his header from Dwight McNeil’s cross is just wide.

33mins: SAVE! Kepa Arrizabalaga, making his debut in goal for Bournemouth, brilliantly blocks Iliman Ndiaye’s close-range volley with his legs.

44mins: CLOSE! Everton are on top and McNeil is next to try his luck, but his left-footed shot from outside the box is narrowly off target before the break.

50mins: GOAL! After a goalless first half, it is Everton who take the lead five minutes into the second half. Calvert-Lewin heads Jack Harrison's cross into the path of Michael Keane, who fires beyond Kepa from 12 yards.

57mins: GOAL! Seven minutes after his assist, Calvert-Lewin makes it 2-0 to Everton with a delicate chip over the goalkeeper for his first goal of the season to round off another well-worked passing move.

71mins: POST! James Tarkowski almost adds a third for Everton, but his header from McNeil's dangerous corner hits a post and goes behind. Surely it won't matter though...?

82mins: SAVE! Bournemouth are not going quietly and Marcus Tavernier forces Jordan Pickford into a good save as the Cherries try to find a way back into the match. 

87mins: GOAL! With three minutes of normal time remaining, Bournemouth pull one back. Dango Ouattara's brilliant cross flashes beyond the Toffees' defence and is met by Antoine Semenyo, who arrives at the back post to finish.

90+2mins: GOAL! Everton were seemingly on course for a first win of the season, but Bournemouth have had other ideas. Luis Sinisterra dinks the ball into the box and Lewis Cook heads past Pickford for the equaliser - and his first ever Premier League goal.

90+6mins: GOAL! Unbelievable! Bournemouth's turnaround is complete. Four minutes after equalising, the Cherries go ahead. Sinisterra, who helped create their second goal, is left unmarked to powerfully head in a cross from Justin Kluivert.

90+8mins: FULL-TIME! The whistle goes and there's shock around Goodison Park. Everton, who seemed to be cruising to victory, instead suffer a third successive defeat, while Bournemouth players celebrate after earning their first win of the season against all the odds.
