Bournemouth completed one of the Premier League's greatest-ever comebacks against Luton Town on Wednesday.

Luton Town claimed a three goal lead at half-time, courtesy of strikes from Tahith Chong, Chiedozie Ogbene and Ross Barkley. Luton were so dominant at that point that Bournemouth were booed off at half-time.

However, the Cherries came back to claim an unlikely win through Dominic Solanke, Illia Zabarnyi and an Antoine Semenyo brace.

It could even have been five for Bournemouth, with Enes Unal forcing Thomas Kaminski to a save in injury time.

It was the first time that a side had come back from three goals down to win in the Premier League since 2003, and only the fifth time in the competition's history.

Moreover, the result may prove to be costly loss for Luton come what may, with Rob Edwards' side languishing in 18th, some three points adrift of Nottingham Forest. The manner of the defeat will be particularly bruising for Luton given they are set to welcome Forest to Kenilworth Road on Saturday in a crucial relegation six-pointer.

On the comeback, Paul Robinson told the BBC: "There are ways to lose football matches and that will be a real kick in the teeth for Rob Edwards.

"It just shows how fragile Luton are. They are on a run of form not picking up results and results going against them. When you are down there and go 3-0 up, one goes in and then that self doubt begins to creep in.

"That seems to be what has happened tonight. That will be a real hammer blow for them."

Luton are now without a win in their last seven Premier League games.

Meanwhile, Bournemouth boost their hopes of a first top-half finish since 2016/17, with Andoni Iraola's side just five points off Newcastle in tenth.
