Bournemouth produced one of the greatest Premier League comebacks as they recovered from 3-0 down to beat Luton in a seven-goal thriller at Vitality Stadium.

Tahith Chong, Chiedozie Ogbene, and Ross Barkley gave the Hatters a three-goal lead at the interval. They were unstoppable in the first half.

Nevertheless, Bournemouth showed much superior play after the interval. They became just the fifth team in Premier League history to overcome a 3-0 deficit, with Antoine Semenyo’s blazing double and Illia Zabarnyi’s bundled finish capping the incredible comeback.

On a poignant evening, Luton appeared poised for a historic victory; this match was rescheduled after the December encounter was called off due to skipper Tom Lockyer’s cardiac failure on the field.

But instead they missed the chance to move out of the relegation zone and remain winless in their past seven games, staying three points behind 17th-placed Nottingham Forest who they host in the Premier League on Saturday.

Bournemouth remain 13th following their first home win in 2024.
