Ghanaian forward Antoine Semenyo once again showcased his talent on Sunday, December 8, 2024, as he played a pivotal role in AFC Bournemouth’s thrilling 2-1 Premier League victory over Ipswich Town at Portman Road.
Ipswich seized the early momentum, breaking the deadlock in the 21st minute when Conor Chaplin latched onto a precise pass from Cameron Burgess and found the net with a clinical finish. Undeterred by the deficit, Bournemouth maintained their attacking intensity, with Semenyo playing a crucial role in driving their forward play.
The Cherries’ determination paid dividends in the dying moments of the match. In the 87th minute, Enes Ünal pounced on a defensive error, steering the ball into the net to bring the visitors level. The decisive blow came in stoppage time, as Dango Ouattara displayed remarkable composure amid a congested penalty area, delivering the winner in the 95th minute to seal a dramatic comeback.
Semenyo’s performances this season have been a cornerstone of Bournemouth’s campaign. His four goals and assist across 14 league matches underline his importance to the team as they strive to ascend the standings.
