After Jay Rodriguez put the Baggies ahead at the Vitality Stadium, Bournemouth went up a gear, scored two world-class goals, and completed a well-executed comeback.

With just over 40 minutes to go, the Cherries needed to net twice if they were going to claim all three points. That's exactly what they did - and with style.

The equaliser flew in off the boot of Jordon Ibe in the 77th minute. Noticing his options were sparse, the Englishman tried his luck with a dipping effort that bounced unforgivingly infront of Asmir Begovic. 1-0 and Bournemouth had all the momentum.

The Cherries left it late to grab their winner but Junior Stanislas eventually emerged as the hero. With a minute to play of normal time, Stanislas bent a precise freekick over the wall and beyond Begovic.

If the Baggies keeper could've saved the first strike, he had no chance with that one. Scenes of elation filled the Vitality as Bournemouth celebrated a stunning comeback that all but ensures them another season in England's top flight.
