Bournemouth started the match on top with Marc Pugh and Josh King both failing to hit the target in the early stages, before King's deflected effort struck the post.

However, the visitors broke the deadlock on 18 minutes when Junior Stanislas sent the goalkeeper the wrong way from the spot after Pugh had been hauled down.

The visitors were dealt a blow later in the half when summer signing Christian Atsu, on loan from Everton, pulled up with an injury and needed to be replaced.

Two minutes after the restart, though, the Cherries extended their lead when Eunan O'Kane played in Stanislas, who made no mistake from a tight angle to net his second of the night.

Just after the hour, it was three as Tyrone Mings provided a through-ball for King, who held off the defender before driving the ball into the net.

Bournemouth were content with their work for the night and never looked in danger of slipping up in the final stages as they ran out convincing winners at Huish Park.
