AFC Bournemouth vs Newcastle United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

The full-time whistle is blown as Bournemouth and Newcastle draw 0-0 at the Vitality Stadium. It was a game of few attacking moments as Newcastle’s cautious and disciplined approach earned a much-needed point against Iraola’s high-flying Bournemouth outfit. Kluivert tested Pope at the end of the match with a low free-kick, which was parried away by the towering Englishman to preserve the stalemate. The defences of both teams undoubtedly prevailed, with a draw an accurate reflection of an uneventful encounter. The Cherries accumulated a slightly higher expected goals (xG) with 0.56 to Newcastle’s 0.14. Bournemouth also registered more possession with 56.3%, but couldn’t find a breakthrough as a rotated Newcastle line-up held firm and collected a point. This result moves Bournemouth up to fourth, while Newcastle are 13th. Next week, Howe’s men host Bradford City in the EFL Cup and Arsenal in the Premier League, while Bournemouth travel to Leeds in their upcoming top-flight outing.
