Antoine Semenyo: Black Stars striker scores stunning net-breaking goal as Bournemouth push Burnley further into EPL relegation zone

Ghanaian striker Antoine Semenyo showed off his scoring skills by bagging his fifth Premier League goal of the season in style, helping AFC Bournemouth secure a win over Burnley on Sunday afternoon.

Since returning from the Black Stars’ disappointing 2023 AFCON campaign, Semenyo has been in outstanding form, playing a key role in helping the Cherries secure their first away win in four games.

It was Justin Kluivert, the son of the renowned Dutch forward Patrick Kluivert, who initially put Bournemouth ahead. All these coming on the back of coming under pressure in the early stages of the game.

Despite squandering two promising opportunities, the Black Stars forward redeemed himself with a screamer of a strike that found the back of the net after deflecting slightly.

This memorable goal marked his 200th club appearance, leaving an enduring impact on the match.

Semenyo’s fifth goal of the season positioned him as the second-highest scorer for Bournemouth, trailing behind Dominic Solanke, who has notched up 14 goals.

The win snapped Bournemouth’s seven-game winless run, giving their morale a much-needed lift.
