In the midst of advanced transfer talks, Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo delivered a mixed performance, setting up two goals and giving away a spot-kick in a thrilling draw with Chelsea.
Despite being on the verge of a lucrative switch, the 25-year-old attacker started for his club. His distinctive long throw-ins proved a potent weapon, leading to goals for teammates David Brooks and Justin Kluivert.
Brooks opened the scoring just six minutes in, converting from close quarters after a dangerous long throw from Semenyo.

The home side's boss reshuffled his team at the break, bringing on James and Neto for Acheampong and Garnacho.

Fernandez had the clearest opportunity to win it late on, but he skied his effort from a promising position inside the penalty area.
Palmer's withdrawal for Pedro was greeted by boos from a section of the home crowd as the manager's side sought control. Despite growing dominance in the latter stages, Chelsea could not find a decisive late goal.
