Bournemouth boost European chances with 2-1 win at Newcastle

Bournemouth grabbed a late winner to secure a well-deserved 2-1 Premier League win away to Newcastle United on Saturday that boosts their hopes of European football next season while dealing a serious blow to those of their hosts, Reuters reported. 

Newcastle's William Osula struck in the 68th minute to cancel out Marcus Tavernier's first-half opener but, instead of kicking on to win, the home side floundered and Adrien Truffert scored five minutes from time to leave Bournemouth eighth in the table on 48 points, while Newcastle slip to 14th on 42 points. 

"We're in great form, 13 unbeaten (in the league) now - that's not lucky from us, we've worked hard and earned it on the training pitch," a delighted Tavernier said.
