Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo delivered an impressive performance for Bournemouth AFC in their 2-2 draw against Newcastle United on Saturday.
Semenyo scored a crucial goal in the 69th minute, with a thunderous finish from the corner of the penalty area.

Semenyo’s tireless efforts on the right flank proved fruitful as he consistently threatened Newcastle’s defence, ultimately leading to his team’s lead after Newcastle had levelled from the spot.
However, Newcastle’s Matt Ritchie scored in stoppage time to earn a point for the home side.
Semenyo’s goal was his fourth of the season, complemented by an assist in 19 Premier League appearances.
Although he has made significant contributions to Bournemouth’s campaign, Semenyo experienced disappointment with Ghana in the recent AFCON 2023, where the team failed to advance beyond the group stages.
The 24-year-old striker, who previously played for Bristol City, continues to thrive in the Premier League, making a lasting impact on Bournemouth who have now moved nine points clear of the bottom three.
