Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 5 Nov, 21:16 · Archive

Bournemouth came from behind to beat Sparta Prague 3-1 in the Europa League, extending their winning run to seven matches and maintaining their perfect record in Europe. They fell behind in the first half to a solo effort from Gambian forward Ebrima Singhateh, minutes after Lewis Cook's penalty for Bournemouth struck a post.

Sparta Prague were reduced to ten men early in the second half when centre-back Tobias Guddal was sent off for a second yellow card. Tyler Adams levelled for Bournemouth in the 57th minute with a shot into the bottom corner after Guddal's dismissal. Evanilson then put Bournemouth ahead in the 81st minute with a low finish, before Rayan added a third goal late on.

Bournemouth have made an impressive start to their debut European season. Marco Rose made eight changes from the previous weekend's league match but introduced his main players from the bench in the second half. They now sit top of the Europa League league-phase table with four wins from four matches and will be confident of securing direct passage to the last 16.
