Bournemouth Comeback sinks Luton
Bournemouth completed a stunning second-half comeback to fight back from 3-0 down to beat Luton 4-3 on Wednesday night.
The remarkable result marks only the fifth occasion in Premier League history a team has come from three goals down to win.
In the game replayed after Tom Lockyer’s cardiac arrest during the initial tie in December, the Hatters stormed into a shock 3-0 lead at the Vitality Stadium.
Tahith Chong put Rob Edwards’ side in front, with Chiedozie Ogbene and Ross Barkley extending the lead before half-time, when Andoni Iraola’s players were booed off the pitch by the furious home crowd.
But the second half was a different story. Dominic Solanke pulled one back and Illia Zabarnyi added another, before Antoine Semenyo’s brilliant double finally took the game away from a shell-shocked Luton.
The Hatters were on course to move out of the relegation zone and above Nottingham Forest when they were leading, but instead, they stay 18th, three points from safety with 10 games to play.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, boost their hopes of a first top-half finish since 2016/17 and move to within five points of Newcastle in 10th.
