Ramsey caps Newcastle fightback for draw as Bournemouth concede late again
Developed over time first seen 1 day ago
Newcastle United came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Bournemouth in the Premier League, substitute Jacob Ramsey netting a superb 88th-minute equaliser to deny Marco Rose's side a first win as manager. It was the third consecutive league game in which Rose's Bournemouth surrendered a lead, overshadowing an outstanding individual display from midfielder Alex Scott and leaving Rose to lament his side's wastefulness despite registering 17 shots on target to Newcastle's two.
Bournemouth raced into a 2-0 lead through Marcus Tavernier's ninth-minute finish and a Malick Thiaw own goal, with Scott heavily involved in both, only for Harvey Barnes to pull one back almost immediately with a fine curled effort. Newcastle improved after the break, introducing £51m debutant Matias Fernandez-Pardo, and went close through Joe Willock before Ramsey's late strike completed the comeback; Newcastle remain without a league win over Bournemouth in nine attempts, while manager Matthias Jaissle admitted his side were still "on a learning curve".

Newcastle United and Bournemouth met in the Premier League, a match that saw Bournemouth twice go ahead before Newcastle clawed back to draw 2-2. Newcastle are managed by Matthias Jaissle, while Bournemouth are led by Marco Rose, who was still searching for his first win since taking charge of the south-coast club.
Bournemouth's Marcus Tavernier and midfielder Alex Scott had been central to their fast start, but the result extended a troubling pattern for Rose's side, who have now let slip a lead in three successive league matches. For Newcastle, the comeback featured a debut from new signing Matias Fernandez-Pardo, reported to have cost around £51m, and continued a longer run in which they have gone nine league meetings without beating Bournemouth.
The context matters because both clubs are being judged on habits as much as results: Bournemouth on their repeated inability to protect leads under a new manager, and Newcastle on their capacity to fight back from difficult positions under Jaissle.
