Newcastle United drew 1-1 with Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium - here are the player ratings from the match so far.
Marcus Tavernier opened the scoring for The Cherries following a mistake from Joelinton.
Eddie Howe made two changes to the side that beat Southampton 1-0 on the opening day of the season with the suspended Fabian Schar dropping out to be replaced by Emil Krafth at centre-back. New signing Lloyd Kelly made his full debut against his former club with Lewis Hall dropping to the bench.
Howe was looking to pick up his first league win against The Cherries since leaving the club in 2020. The Magpies boss went into the game having drawn three and lost one of his three encounters with his former club in the Premier League.
After a positive start to the match from Newcastle which saw Alexander Isak denied by Neto, Nick Pope was called into action at the opposite end to deny new Cherries signing Evanilson. Antoine Semenyo then saw a dipping effort from the edge of the box crash back off the Newcastle crossbar as the scoreline remained 0-0 after half an hour.
But in the build-up to half-time, former Newcastle academy player Tavernier put The Cherries ahead after Joelinton was robbed of possession in a dangerous area.
The hosts held onto their lead going in at half-time as Newcastle faced a fifth consecutive league match without a win against Howe’s former club.
Alexander Isak, Harvey Barnes and Joelinton came close in the second half but Bournemouth were holding on to their lead heading into the closing stages.
But Newcastle finally drew level with 15 minutes to go as Anthony Gordon tapped in Barnes’ cross at the back post to make it 1-1. Bournemouth then reacted well with two good chances to re-take the lead before Newcastle were denied by a couple more good saves from Neto.
Bournemouth thought they’d won it in stoppage time as Dango Ouattara turned the ball in from a corner only for the goal to be ruled out for handball.
Here are the Newcastle United player ratings from the match...
5. Lloyd Kelly - 5
Made his first Newcastle start against his former club. Not overly convincing so far with Semenyo posing a real threat. | Getty Images
6. Sean Longstaff - 6
Conceded a clumsy free-kick on the edge of the box. His passing was tidy was caught out on a couple once or twice. | Getty Images
7. Bruno Guimaraes - 6
Saw Ryan Christie booked for a foul as he tried to bring the ball out. Had some good moments on the ball under pressure and has tried to make things happen and grew into the game as Newcastle pushed late on. Had an effort well saved by Neto in stoppage time. | Getty Images
8. Joelinton - 3
Had some strong moments winning the ball back early on but was guilty of several of loose touches and passes to gift possession back to the home side. Should have made things more difficult for Semenyo in the build-up to the Bournemouth winger's effort that hit the bar. Robbed of the ball in a dangerous area which resulted in the opening goal. A shocker after his excellent showing last weekend. Had a close ranger header saved by Neto but ought to have connected better. Had a lucky escape in stoppage time as VAR came to Newcastle's rescue after Dango Ouattara thought he'd won it. Booked. | Getty Images
