Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo delivered a standout performance on Tuesday night, netting a remarkable goal to help AFC Bournemouth secure a vital 2-2 draw against Chelsea in the English Premier League.

The highly-rated attacker, who has been attracting attention for his consistent displays, started the match at Stamford Bridge as Bournemouth took on Chelsea in a matchday 21 encounter of the 2024/25 season.

Semenyo, operating dynamically from the flanks, was a constant threat to the Chelsea defense. His moment of brilliance came in the 69th minute when he latched onto a well-placed pass from Ryan Christie. With composure and precision, the Black Stars forward shifted the ball to his left foot and unleashed a thunderous strike that soared past the Chelsea goalkeeper into the net. The goal gave Bournemouth the lead for the first time in the game, showcasing Semenyo’s clinical finishing and eye for the spectacular.

However, Bournemouth’s joy was short-lived as Chelsea clawed their way back. In the dying moments of injury time, Reece James salvaged a point for the home side with a sublime free-kick, leaving the visitors with mixed emotions.

Earlier in the match, both teams exchanged blows with goals from Cole Palmer and Justin Kluivert canceling each other out before Semenyo’s sensational effort briefly put Bournemouth ahead.

While Bournemouth might have hoped for all three points, Antoine Semenyo’s standout performance and incredible goal served as a reminder of his growing influence in the Premier League and his importance to the Ghanaian national team.

This result keeps Bournemouth in the fight as the league’s intense competition continues, with Semenyo’s heroics providing a bright spot for the visitors.
