Bournemouth beats Everton in Goodison Park’s last FA Cup tips | FA CUP

The parking end was overwhelmed before kick-off with banners reminiscent of Everton’s five FA Cup triumphs, each part of the competition’s 132-year history at Goodison Park. The story is where the Goodison and FA Cup remain. Bournemouth made sure there would never be another cup binding at Grand Old Stadium as Andoni Iraola’s team defeated Everton for the third time this season.

Two James Tarkowski faults contributed to the two Bournemouth goals, a penalty from the impressive Antoine Sememyo plus a unified effort from Daniel Jebbison, leaving David Moyes’ side with the saying mountain to climb by half-time. Everton did their best to arrange a recovery in the second half only to beat the position three times.

Bournemouth almost did with Everton what the home ground had done with Leicester last Saturday in scoring directly from kick-off. Ryan Christie caught the home defense cold as he turned to put Jebbison through on goal. Jake O’Brien got a very important touch, but the ball fell to Marcus Tavernier, whose target -bound shot was blocked by Tarkowski. The early drama was not maintained, nor was Tarkowskis usually reliable presence in the Everton defense.

Iliman Ndiaye created a chance for nothing when he removed Illia Zabarnyi on the city line and slipped past Tyler Adams, but his attempt to push a shot under Kepa Arrizabalaga from a tight angle was awarded by visitors. It was an otherwise muted, scary cup tie until a combination of Bournemouth’s polished approach playing, and Tarkowski’s Leaden-Feet gave a penalty for the Iraoli side.

Milos Kerkez, the Hungary-Venstreback, associated with a step to Liverpool, released Semenyo behind a static Everton defense with a nice padded volley from Dean Huijsen’s long ball. The powerful tips went further into the area where he was unconsciously occupied by Tarkowski’s mistake. Semenyo picked up to convert an obvious punishment to Jordan Pickford’s lower corner., Pickford went the right way but was beaten by the pace of Semenyo’s spot kick.

Tarkowski’s second expensive mistake arrived shortly before the interval when he under no pressure after receiving a Pickford-goal-kick pinged a passport right to Tavernier. Bournemouth Winger’s shot deflected into the path to Jebbison, who bundled the ball past Everton goalkeeper at the second attempt.

Everton had been careless in possession, guilty of their own downfall and unable to hold their feet at times with Idrissa Gueye and Jesper Lindstrom repeatedly slip over. Still, the boos that followed them down the tunnel at half-time-in-time were shown from a minority of the home crowd-latter. Running a connection between the team and fans is a priority for Moyes, and as he said before the game, the key to players capable of performing with freedom.

The hosts improved significantly after reboot and performed with the intensity and positivity that was absent before the break. The introduction of the recent loan signing Carlos Alcaraz was an important factor, but there would be no reward. Arrizabalaga’s frame made sure.

It was clearly not Tarkowskis or Everton’s day. The central defender just failed to connect with a James Garner corner as it flew over the Bournemouth Six-Yard box. Alcaraz, buried 25 meters from the finish after a rolling race from the midfield, swept the resulting free kick against a post with Karrizabalaga that was rooted to the scene. Ndiaye flipped an Ashley Young Corner towards Goal Only for Semenyo to get ready from the line. Alcaraz kept the pressure on, colleague compensation Jack Harrison crossed to the back post, and O’Brien went towards the woodwork from two meters out. Another Harrison crossed and then sailed over the Bournemouth defense, hit the inside of the same post and rebounded in the grateful arms of the visiting keeper. The three attempts against the woodwork and Semenyo’s clearance were all condensed to a room of five minutes.

At the other end, Pickford saved from replacement Justin Kluivert and up close from Semenyo, when Bournemouth seemed to punish Everton on the counter -attack. They had already applied enough.
