How It Happened

  1. FT

    Full time: Bournemouth 3-0 AC Milan, and it was every bit as comfortable as that scoreline suggests. Kluivert and Tavernier both scored penalties before the break, and Maignan's dismissal left Milan with a mountain to climb a man light for over an hour. Adli's late free-kick completed the rout, capping a night where Bournemouth dominated with 20 shots to Milan's 3 and barely looked troubled throughout. A brilliant European night at the Vitality for the Cherries.

  34. 69'

    Bournemouth have made a triple change but the pattern hasn't shifted at all - still utterly dominant against ten-man Milan. Rayan headed just wide from Truffert's cross and Christie had another effort from range, with the shot count now 13-1 in the Cherries' favour. Milan still can't find a way through, and 2-0 continues to look like a fair reflection of a one-sided contest.

    Bournemouth have carried on where they left off after the break, dominating possession and territory against ten-man Milan. Christie dragged a effort wide from the edge of the box, and the Cherries keep nudging their foul count up as they push for a third, but Milan's threat remains almost non-existent with Moreira's free-kick win one of their few forays forward. Still 2-0 and very much Bournemouth's game to control.

    Half-time round-up
    Bournemouth3-0Milan
    Kluivert 8' (pen), Tavernier 32' (pen)

    Half time at the Vitality and it's been a superb 45 minutes for Bournemouth. Kluivert and Tavernier both converted penalties either side of Maignan's red card, leaving Milan down to ten men and well off the pace - the Cherries have had 10 shots to Milan's 1 and look fully in control heading into the break.

  59. Half time · 2-0
  60. 45+1'

    A fairly scrappy end to the half with plenty of free kicks given away on both sides, but Bournemouth remain well in command against ten-man Milan. Tavernier almost added a third from a direct free kick, while the home side's foul count has crept up as they've pressed for a third - it's 2-0 and the Cherries go in at the break firmly in the driving seat.
