The visitors did most of the early running with Frank Nouble watching his shot saved after 12 minutes, although Ryan Fraser tested their defence on three separate occasions thereafter.

Bournemouth stepped up their game as Elliott Ward and Matt Ritchie had chances to break the deadlock, but failed to take them.

It finished goalless at the break, but Daryl Murphy broke the deadlock just before the hour mark when he turned in Nouble's cross from close range with his left foot.

Murphy came close again just moments later, before Ryan Tunnicliffe saw his long-range effort saved midway through the second half.

Bournemouth earned themselves a point with 16 minutes left on the clock, Brett Pitman with the equaliser for the hosts.
