BBC pundit Danny Murphy says Cherries used an “obvious tactic” to exploit Burnley and seal all three points at Turf Moor.

Despite being on the back foot for much of the contest, Cherries emerged 2-0 victors in Lancashire, Lewis Cook providing assists for Justin Kluivert and Antoine Semenyo to find the net.

It leaves Burnley stuck in the relegation zone, 11 points adrift of safety. On the flip side, Cherries are now 11 points clear of danger.

Analysing the game in his role as a pundit on Match of the Day 2, former Liverpool midfielder Murphy said: “Although they (Cherries) didn’t play particularly well, there was a clear intent to play in behind that high Burnley line, every time they got it.

“There was a little warning for them early from Kluivert, who is more than willing to run in behind for Bournemouth.

“We don’t see this pass very often, not really picking anyone out, it is just guided into an area to get the team turned. The reason they do that, is because they know Burnley have got this high line.

“Who is first to react? Kluivert again. Great composure and a wonderful finish that gave them a lead they didn’t deserve.

“In the second half, they did it even more. Yes, Burnley were pushing to try and get an equaliser, but it was high risk football from Burnley.

“It’s not even that good from Bournemouth, it’s one pass and look at the space in behind and Burnley don’t have the quickest centre-halves.

“That (Semenyo) goal killed them and the game was done.

“But it was such an obvious tactic from Bournemouth to just keep getting that ball into the spaces, because they knew Burnley had a high line.”

Cherries have now completed the league double over Vincent Kompany’s Clarets, having defeated them 2-1 at Vitality Stadium in October.
