Bournemouth ends Newcastle streak thanks to Kluivert's hat-trick
Bournemouth defeated Newcastle, ending the hosts' streak of six consecutive victories in the Premier League.
The hero of the game was the guests' striker Justin Kluivert, who completed a hat-trick. The Dutchman opened the scoring with a touch in the 6th minute and later put his team ahead again before the break. Kluivert's third goal was the biggest one of the match - the forward dared to shoot from outside the box and curled the ball into the right corner of the goal.
Milos Kerkez put the finishing touch on Newcastle's defeat just before the final whistle - 4:1 in favour of Bournemouth.
