WEST Bromwich Albion manager Alan Irvine delivers his post-match verdict following AFC Bournemouth's 2-1 victory in the League Cup at Dean Court tonight. 

Cherries midfielder Eunan O'Kane lit the blue touch paper four minutes after half-time by finishing off a driving run and delicate pass from Junior Stanislas. 

Georgios Samaras's tame shot was deflected into his own net by Cherries caaptain Tommy Elphick to level matters five minutes from time but Callum Wilson broke away to net the decider within 60 seconds  of the restart. 

The victory saw Cherries reach the last eight of the League Cup for the first time in club history.
