We began 2026 with an important 3-2 victory at Bournemouth to send us six points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Declan Rice’s second-half brace was the pivotal impact in the contest, with Gabriel equalising after making amends for a mistake leading to Evanilson’s opener.
Eli Junior Kroupi fired the Cherries back in it late on, but we managed the remainder of the encounter to see out three hard-fought points.
