Evanilson launches eighth straight Bournemouth win at blundering Ipswich

Another Evanilson goal helped fire Marco Rose’s Bournemouth to an eighth straight victory with a hard-fought 2-1 win at Ipswich.

Evanilson failed to score in his first six appearances of the season but found the net for a fifth consecutive Premier League match and made it seven goals in eight after five minutes at Portman Road.

It came after a terrible error by Ipswich goalkeeper Christian Walton, who tried and failed to dribble around the Brazilian forward, before worse followed for the hosts 27 seconds into the second half.

Bournemouth went two up when Ryan Christie’s effort deflected off Leif Davis and in for an own goal.

Gary O’Neil watched Ipswich rally against his former club, with a Jack Clarke penalty halving the deficit with 17 minutes left, but the hosts could not find an equaliser to make it only one win from their last seven matches.
